Decision (including
reasons if different from those set out in report):
The
Sub-Committee considered an application by Dhavalkumar Trivedi
(“The Applicant”) for a new premises licence in respect
of Eureka, Basement to Ground Floor, 46
Warwick Way, London, SW1V 1RY. The application was for off-sales of
alcohol from a convenience store / newsagent from 10 am to 10 pm
every day of the week.
The Licensing Officer
introduced the application to the Sub-Committee and confirmed that
the Police had withdrawn their representation following the
agreement of conditions with the applicant.
Mr Samaroo, representing the
applicant, explained that when submitting the application, a
mistake had been made regard to the opening hours of the Premises.
The application stated the opening hours for Monday to Sunday as
10:00 whilst it should have specified its current opening hours of
07:00.
The Sub-Committee was advised
by Mr Samaroo that the applicant had been operating the Premises
for 13 years. The application before it was to permit the sale of
alcohol between the hours of 10:00 and 22:00 Monday to Sunday. Mr
Samaroo advised that the Police had commentated on the
comprehensive nature of the application which had been made to
ensure it would not detrimentally impact on local residents. No
residential representations had been received and the Police had
withdrawn their representation following the agreement of
conditions which included prohibiting any sales of high strength
beers or miniature bottles of spirits. It was recognised that
street drinking was an issue in the area and this had been taken
into consideration when making the application. Discussions with
Environmental Health (EH) had taken place following which a
condition would be added to the licence requiring all alcohol
within the trading area to be secured behind locked grilles outside
the hours permitting the sale of alcohol.
The Council’s Legal
Adviser clarified to all parties that as the applicant had applied
for 10:00 as the opening hours, if the Sub-Committee was minded to
grant the application then it could not grant any hours in excess
of this. The applicant would not be committing an offence by
opening at its current hours of 07:00, as long as they were not
selling alcohol. However, if any problems were reported to be
emanating from the Premises then the licence could potentially be

Decision (including
reasons if different from those set out in report):
The Sub-Committee considered an
application by Longmartin Properties Ltd (“The
Applicant”) for a new premises licence in respect of
19 Slingsby Place, Ground Floor and Basement,
London, WC2E 9AB.
The Licensing officer
introduced the application.
Mr Thomas, representing the
applicant, provided the Sub-Committee with an overview of where the
Premises was located. The development it was situated on had been
open for 10 years and within it was contained several existing
restaurants and licensed premises. The Sub-Committee had before it
applications for 3 premises which had been created by combining 2
retail units with an existing A3 unit and then re-dividing them.
The result would be 3 restaurants, 2 of which were at the ground
and first floor levels (21 and 23 Slingsby Place) and one (19
Slingsby Place) at ground and basement levels. Planning permission
had been granted to permit the changes 6 months previously and the
applications before the Sub-Committee were aligned with that
permission.
Mr Thomas recognised that the
main concern raised over the applications related to the proposed
ancillary bar use at the restaurants. To mitigate these concerns
the applicant proposed to surrender the licence of the Sussex
Public House. This pub was licensed to core hours, had limited
conditions on the licence and permitted vertical drinking over 2
floors. If the Sub-Committee was minded to grant the application a
condition would be imposed requiring this licence to be
surrendered. The Council’s Legal Adviser advised the
Sub-Committee that the Sussex was no longer in operation and
requested information from the applicant on what value surrendering
the licence would have on the Cumulative Impact Area (CIA). In
response Mr Thomas highlighted the ‘Cheers Bar &
Grill’ case which dealt with issues surrounding moving a
licence from one location to another. The Sub-Committee was advised
that the same issues did not apply for this application as the
Sussex building still existed, unlike the building in the
‘Cheers Bar ...
