The Licensing Sub-Committee convened to discuss an application for a new premises licence for Brati A&A Cafe, and ultimately decided to approve the application, with a condition to end the sale of alcohol at 10pm on Sundays. The applicant, Luljim Brati, sought permission to sell alcohol from 10am to 10.30pm, Monday to Sunday at the cafe, located at 530 Rainham Road South, Dagenham. The sub-committee heard representations from interested parties, the licensing officer, and the applicant before making their decision.

The Licensing Sub-Committee granted a new premises licence to Royal Express, located at 12 Faircross Parade, Longbridge Road, Barking, IG11 8UN. The licence allows for late night refreshment from 11pm to 5am, Monday to Sunday, and the sale of alcohol from 9am to 2am daily, superseding the existing licence. This decision came after the Metropolitan Police and the Council's licensing authority withdrew their objections based on an amendment to the original application, which had sought a 24-hour alcohol sales licence.
