Application for a premises licence on land at Daresbury PDF 113 KB Minutes: The Committee met to
consider an application which had been made under section 17 of the Licensing
Act 2003 for a premises licence in relation to the above premises. The hearing was held in
accordance with the provisions of section 18 Licensing Act 2003 and the
Licensing Act (Hearings) Regulations 2005. At the commencement of the
hearing the Committee were advised that certain conditions proposed by the
Police and the Council’s Environmental Health, Building Control and Enforcement
Division had been amended to improve clarity and to avoid duplication. Certain
additional conditions were also proposed by the applicant and the above
responsible bodies: a comparison between the proposed conditions as set out in
the agenda for the hearing and those set out below tracks the relevant details.
The Applicant confirmed that the conditions, as amended, were agreed. The Committee heard representations in

represented by Simon Taylor of Freeth Cartwright LLP Solicitors who was accompanied by Jim
