Annex 3 - Conditions attached after a hearing by the licensing authority
The premises licence was subject to a review by sub committee on the 13th December 2017. The decision was -
Having listened to the applicant for the review and the representative for the premises licence holder, the Sub-committee members were satisfied that the issues which arose at the Hope and Glory Festival were not attributable to any failures by Liverpool City Council, in its capacity as premises licence holder, and that the terms and conditions of the St. George’s Quarter Licence were fit for purpose and satisfactorily promoted the licensing objectives. The Sub-committee members were fortified in this conclusion by the fact that none of the Responsible Authorities had considered it appropriate to submit any relevant representations as part of the review process and the applicant itself did not seek any steps being taken in respect of the licence.
The Sub-committee therefore decided that, in the circumstances of this particular application, it was not appropriate to take any of the steps set out in Section 52(4) of the Licensing Act 2003.
