A summary of the Hearing:

 

1. THE APPLICANT’S CASE

 

The applicant applied to vary the current premises licence and wished to extend the licensed hours on Fridays and Saturdays, for the sale of alcohol, the performance of live and recorded music, and the provision of late-night entertainment. Details of steps intended to take to promote the four licensing objectives were noted in page 22 of the application bundle.

 

The applicant explained that the premises was a Turkish restaurant.  The restaurant had been operating for 6 years. He had a good team of staff who had worked at the premises for about 6 years.  He said that he looked after his staff and his customers well. The premises tried to create a safe environment for all.

 

The applicant said that the aim of the application was to increase the operating hours and thus increase the revenue and so expand the business. He went on to say that he was aware of the Licensing Objectives and followed the relevant licensing guidelines such as the use of the ‘Challenge 25’ policy, staff training and liaising with the police.  The applicant mentioned that he had recently upgraded the premises’ CCTV camera system which could now record and store information for up to 31 days. (In the discussion he mentioned that the new CCCTV system had assisted the police with a robbery which took place near to the premises).

 

The applicant mentioned that: Temporary Event  Notices (TENs) were previously applied for and were granted and that there were no objections nor complaints following the events.  ...  view the full minutes text for item 10
