Minutes:

The Director of Neighbourhood Services submitted a report informing Members about forthcoming changes to the Licensing Act 2003 to approve Early Morning Restriction Orders, and a Late Night Levy.  The two powers would be mutually exclusive.  The Interim Licensing Manager said that the Late Night Levy would generate additional income for the Council and the Police, however, the Police had indicated that they preferred the Early Morning Restriction Order.  This would ensure all premises selling alcohol must close between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m.

 

The Committee decided to receive the report.

 

RESOLVED - that the report be received.
