Decision
To
grant the variation application of a premises licence known as SWIM CAFÉ at
Marine Parade, Lyme Regis, Dorset on the basis of the operating schedule as set
out by the applicant and to allow the following licensable activities:-
Sale
by retail of alcohol on and off the premises 10:00 – 02:00 hrs Monday – Sunday
Sale
by retail of alcohol off the premises from the Kiosk 10:00 – 20:00 hrs Monday –
Sunday
The
sub-committee had listened to and read all the evidence presented to them and
had concluded that the application to vary the Premises Licence at SWIM CAFE,
Marine Parade, Lyme Regis, Dorset should be allowed subject to the mandatory
conditions as set out in the Licensing Act 2003.
That
is the Sub-committee’s decision. However the matter will no doubt be brought to
the authority’s attention for a review if there are any reasons for concern
established.
Reason for the Decision
1.
In not imposing any conditions the sub-committee
were operating within the spirit of the Licensing Act 2003, which states that
conditions should not be imposed unless it would be necessary to refuse the
application without them.
2.
The Licensing Sub-Committee carefully
considered all the evidence put before it including third party
representations, the licensing objectives, the Council’s Statement of Licensing
and the Guidance issued under Section 182 of the Licensing Act 2003. The
Sub-Committee considered that it was proportionate in the circumstances to
grant the variation of the licence.
3.
It is of course the case that, if there were
significant problems in the future, after the grant of this variation, a formal
review of this licence could take place.
