Minutes:

There were two separate TEN applications for the Committee to determine.

 

In relation to the TEN for 17th July 2022:

 

The Committee noted the contents of the application and considered the oral representations of the Applicant who was present at the hearing.

 

The Committee noted the objection from Essex police who opposed the application on the basis that the licensing objectives, the prevention of crime and disorder and the prevention of public nuisance, would be undermined.

 

Essex Police submitted that a number of conditions had been agreed to assist with the prevention of crime and disorder and the prevention of public nuisance at the   premises. Essex Police therefore sought that the conditions on the current premises licence be applied to the Temporary Event Notice.

 

The Committee noted the objection from Environmental Health who opposed the application on the basis that the licensing objective, the prevention of public nuisance, would be undermined.

 

Environmental Health submitted that a number of conditions had been agreed to assist with the prevention of public nuisance at the premises. Environmental Health therefore sought that the conditions on the current premises licence be applied to the Temporary Event Notice.

 

The Applicant informed the Committee that they were content to accept the existing conditions on its premises licence being imposed on the Temporary Event Notice.

 

It was noted by the Committee that Essex Police, Environmental Health and Licensing Officers commented that the premises was fully compliant with the conditions on the premises licence and that no complaints had been received attributed to the premises.

 

The Committee, in making its determination, had regard to the Authority’s own licensing statement and the guidance issued by the Secretary of State under section 182 of the Licensing Act 2003.

 

Having sought legal advice the Committee resolved to allow the Temporary Event Notice with full conditions of the existing premises licence being imposed upon it.
