The Sub-Committee considered an Application for a new premises licence in respect of ‘Bucharest Supermarket’, 19-21 Nether Hall Road, Doncaster.

The Sub-Committee Members, the Applicant’s Agent, the persons making representations and the responsible authorities had received the agenda prior to the meeting.

The Chair made introductions and outlined the procedure to be followed.

The Agent acting on behalf of the Applicant and the Applicant made representations and answered questions.

The representative from Public Health who had made written representations was in attendance at the meeting and made representations in respect of their objections to the application.

All parties were then asked to leave the room whilst the Sub-Committee deliberated on the application and reached a decision.

RESOLVED that the Licensing Sub-Committee, having considered an application for a Premises Licence for the Bucharest Supermarket, 19-21 Nether Hall Road, Doncaster, and having taken into account the written representations and the evidence presented today, the steps that are appropriate to promote the Licensing Objectives, the Home Office Guidance and our Statement of Licensing Policy, the Sub Committee found that:-

1)    the Applicant did rebut the presumption that a licence will normally be refused in a Cumulative Impact Zone as it is a small premises which is not alcohol led;

2)    The Sub-Committee therefore decided to grant the Application in the terms set out in Appendix B of the Agenda subject to the following conditions:-

                                      I.        All sales of alcohol to be made by a Personal Licence Holder; and

                                    II.        Alcohol to be displayed only in the hatched area shown on the plan at Appendix D1 to the report.
