Ipswich Borough Council's Licensing Policies

The meeting report pack describes two policies from Ipswich Borough Council's Statement of Licensing Policy that are relevant to the application:

  • The Cumulative Impact Policy, which:

    ...no longer [has] the assumption assumed of rejection of a new licence in the CIP area and the authority remains having to evidence the negative impact.

    LRS-24-09 Report

  • The Council's guidance on applications in the Cumulative Impact Policy area, which states that:

    Applications that are unlikely to add to the cumulative impact on the licensing objectives may be granted
