The Licensing Hearing Sub Committee is scheduled to consider an application for a premises licence for La Pizza in Radcliffe. The committee will also review the minutes from its previous meeting.
Application for Premises Licence at La Pizza
The main item scheduled for discussion is an application for a premises licence for La Pizza, located at 106 Water Street, Radcliffe, M26 4BE. The application, submitted under the Licensing Act 20031, seeks to allow for the provision of late-night refreshment between 11:00 and 02:00, Monday to Sunday, and for the premises to be open to the public between 14:00 and 02:00, Monday to Sunday.
The report pack indicates that two representations have been received from interested parties opposing the application. These representations raise concerns regarding the potential for increased public nuisance, such as noise from customers and delivery vehicles, and litter. There are also concerns about the prevention of crime and disorder, with suggestions that the premises could become a late-night gathering point. The report pack outlines that the committee has the option to grant the application as requested, grant it with conditions, amend conditions, or refuse the application.
Minutes of the Last Meeting
The committee is also scheduled to review the minutes from the Licensing Hearing Sub Committee meeting held on 17 September 2026. These minutes, available in the Public reports pack, detail discussions and decisions made at that previous meeting.

The Licensing Act 2003 is the primary legislation governing the sale of alcohol, the provision of regulated entertainment, and late-night refreshment in England and Wales. It aims to promote the four licensing objectives: the prevention of crime and disorder, public safety, the prevention of public nuisance, and the protection of children from harm. ↩
