In considering the application, Members were required to consider the same in accordance with the Licensing Act 2003 (as amended), the Licensing Objectives, the Home Office Guidance and the Council’s Statement of Licensing Policy and in particular to have regard to the promotion of the four licencing objectives:
1. The Prevention of Crime and Disorder
2. Public Safety
3. Prevention of Public Nuisance
4. The Protection of Children from Harm
Consideration
These applications were considered in conjunction with item 3.2 above.
Each application must be considered on its own merits and the Sub-Committee carefully considered the written and verbal representations made by the applicant and their representative, and the three responsible authorities, namely the Licensing Authority, the Metropolitan Police and Environmental Protection, relating to the prevention of crime and disorder and prevention of public nuisance. Oral representations were also considered by a local resident in support of the applications.
The Sub-Committee noted that they were asked to consider the applications for Temporary Event Notices (TENs) for Shuffle Festival Limited, The Lodge, Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park, Southern Grove, E3 4PX.
Jack Spiegler, the applicant’s legal representative, addressed the meeting and advised that the following TENs had been withdrawn
· Railway Yard
· Womens Workhouse
· Scaffold Yard
Mr Spiegler reiterated that no complaints had been received regarding previous events
PC Mark Perry, Metropolitan Police Licensing Team, and Nicola Cadzow, Environmental Health Technical Officer addressed the meeting and confirmed that they were generally satisfied with the revised conditions which had been agreed with the applicant.
Mr Perry suggested that a SAG meeting should take place within the next 10 days to sign off the Event Management Plan. Mr Spiegler gave an undertaken that this meeting would take place.
Ms Cadzow suggested the following informative to align with the time limited premises licence:
“No noise from regulated entertainment shall be audible at any affected façade and/or inside any premises with the window ajar so as not to cause a nuisance.”
Kathy Driver, Principal Licensing Officer addressed Members and raised concerns about the lack of detail provided in the Event Management Plan.
In response to questions and comments from Members, the applicants stated that several TENs had submitted rather than a single time limited application because of the nature of the site. The applicants advised that it was not viable to cease licensable activity any earlier as the programming of films during the longer hours of daylight in summer had to start later and by reducing the time frame may mean that only one film could be shown instead of the plan of showing two films.
Members asked about the dispersal of event goers and Mr Spiegler said that the dispersal of event goers would be staggered throughout the day rather than all patrons leaving at once.
At the conclusion of the oral representations,
the Sub-Committee withdrew to deliberate in private without the
Legal Advisor and Clerk.
The Sub Committee considered that the applicants had reached an acceptable compromise with the Responsible Authorities to address most of the concerns raised and that necessary and proportionate conditions had been agreed which would assist in promoting the licensing objectives. Members accepted the applicant’s argument that ceasing licensable activity at 11.30 pm was not viable due to the programming of films.
