Rushmoor Borough Council Licensing Sub-Committee Meeting

RESOLVED: That, taking into account the public interest test, the public be excluded from the meeting during the discussion of the under mentioned item to avoid the disclosure of exempt information within the paragraphs of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act, 1972 indicated against the item:

The Sub-Committee considered Exempt Report No. OS2501, which set out details of an application for a Fit and Proper Person registration for Brookside Park, Hawley Lane, Farnborough, GU14 9AZ.

The Sub-Committee made a preliminary decision on 17th October 2024, at which they had refused to register the applicant as a Fit and Proper Person. In accordance with the legislation, the applicant had been given the opportunity to make representations before a final decision was made and the Sub-Committee noted that representations had been received. In addition, it was noted that outcomes from a first-tier tribunal had also been received and both documents were considered by the Sub-Committee. A video was also shown to the Sub-Committee.

The Sub-Committee went on to discuss the merits of the case and took into account all the information provided in the agenda pack. It was agreed that a final decision notice, in respect of the applicant, would be prepared and sent to the applicant in accordance with agreed procedure. These would set out the Sub-Committee’s decisions and reasons.
