Application for a Premises Licence for Mangal, 514 Commercial Road, London E1 0HY
Minutes:
At the request of the Chair, Ms Kathy Driver, Licensing Officer, introduced the report which detailed the application for a new premises licence for Mangal, 514 Commercial Road, London E1 0HY. It was noted that there had been one objection from a local resident.
It was noted that the objector was not present at the meeting and therefore members noted and considered the written objection contained in the agenda.
Members then heard from Mr Mostak Askor, Licensing Representative on behalf of the Applicant who explained that upon the suggestion of Environmental Health, a carbon filter duct had been installed to reduce the smell emanating from the premises which Environmental Health were satisfied with.
He concluded that it was a fine dining restaurant, selling Turkish food, family orientated, and employed local people. Mr Askor explained that the applicant now had a contract with the waste collection services and had also installed the carbon filter duct.
In response to questions it was noted that it usually took 15 mins to prepare an order. It was also noted that there were no parking restriction after 7pm and that there was a local minicab office and its drivers usually park their cars around that area.
Members retired to consider their decision at 3.40pm and reconvened at 3.50pm.
The Licensing Objectives
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:
- The Prevention of Crime and Disorder;
- Public Safety;
- Prevention of Public Nuisance; and
- The Protection of Children from Harm
Consideration
Each application must be considered on its own merits and the Chair stated that the Sub Committee in the absence of the objector had carefully considered the written objections in the agenda and listened to the representations made on behalf of the Applicant by their Licensing Representative.
Members noted the reduction in the hours for late night refreshments which was agreed with Environmental Health and welcomed the efforts made by the Applicant to install a carbon filter duck to eliminate the odour and the contract for the waste bin outside the premises and the conditions offered in their operating schedule. Members were satisfied that these conditions would help alleviate the concerns of the local resident and promote the licensing objectives.
Therefore Members made a decision and the decision was unanimous. Members granted the application with conditions to help promote the licensing objectives.
