Members are invited to a Meeting of the Licensing Sub-Committee

to be held in the Conference Room, Riverside, Lowestoft,

on Monday, 28 June 2021 at 2.00pm

 

In order to comply with coronavirus regulations and guidance, the number of people at this meeting will have to be restricted to only those whose attendance is reasonably necessary. 

 

Ordinarily, East Suffolk Council encourages members of the public to attend its meetings but on this occasion would encourage the public to watch the livestream, via the East Suffolk Council YouTube channel instead at https://youtu.be/O56hXmOUwlM

 

If you do believe it is necessary for you to be in attendance we encourage you to notify Democratic Services, by email to democraticservices@eastsuffolk.gov.uk, of your intention to do so no later than 12 noon on the working day before the meeting so that the meeting can be managed in a COVID secure way and the Team can endeavour to accommodate you and advise of the necessary health and safety precautions.  

 

However, we are not able to guarantee you a space/seat and you are advised that it may be that, regrettably, we are not able to admit you to the meeting room.

There were some technical issues with sound from remote participants to the meeting. The Chairman adjourned the meeting for fifteen minutes to see if these could be resolved satisfactorily (2.15pm until 2.30pm). 

 

Upon the meeting reconvening, the Licensing Officer summarised the published report. The Chairman invited questions from the Sub-Committee. Councillor Newton asked if any of the Responsible Authorities had commented on the application. The Licensing Officer said standard responses had been received from four of the Responsible Authorities, but no concerns had been raised; no comment had been received from Suffolk Constabulary. The Applicant, her Representative nor the Objector had any questions. 

 

The Chairman invited the Applicant's representative, Mr Kanapathi, to address the Sub-Committee. However, sound distortion resumed which meant that it was very difficult to hear what Mr Kanapathi was saying clearly. 

 

The Chairman proposed that the meeting therefore be adjourned to ensure a fair hearing for all parties. The meeting was informed that a new date would be arranged and all parties would be notified as soon as possible.
