Test Valley Borough Council Licensing Sub-Committee Meeting

Resolved:

That Councillor Budzynski be appointed as Chairman for the duration of the meeting.

There were no apologies for absence.

There were no declarations of interest.

The Licensing Manager presented the report to consider an application for a variation of the existing Premises Licence in respect of premises at Haydown Farm, Wiremead Lane, East Cholderton. 

The applicant sought to vary the existing hours for supply of alcohol for consumption on and off the premises from 1100 to 2200 hours Monday to Saturday and 1100 to 2100 hours Sunday.  This would regularise the existing hours for supply of alcohol as shown on the current licence attached as Annex 1 to the report.

In response to a question from the Chairman, the Licensing Manager reported that no official complaints had been received from residents, the Police or Environmental Health regarding the existing licence.

The Chairman also reported that he had chaired the meeting when the existing licence was considered.

The applicant was invited to address the Sub-Committee and members were given the opportunity to ask questions of the applicants.

The objectors were invited to address the Sub-Committee and members were given the opportunity to ask questions.  The applicant was also invited to ask questions of the objectors.

The landowner was asked to confirm a statement made by one of the objectors.

The supporter was invited to address the Sub-Committee and members were given the opportunity to ask questions.  The objectors were also invited to ask questions of the supporter.

The applicant then summed up and the Chairman adjourned the meeting to enable the Sub-committee to consider the matter.

Resolved

That the licensable hours remain unaltered Monday to Thursday but extended from 11:00 to 22:00 Friday and Saturday for on sales and off sales and on Sunday from 11:00 to 20:00 for on sales and off sales.
