Details of the application

 

Two temporary events notices (TENs) were submitted by Mr Charlie Faires under s.100 of the Licensing Act 2003.  TEN A was received by Havering’s Licensing Authority on 4th November 2021 and TEN B received on 7th November 2021.

 

TEN A is to permit a birthday party to occur from 19th-21st November 2021 from 19:00 to 01:30 each night. 

 

TEN B is to permit a birthday party to occur from 26th-28th November 2021 from 19:00 to 01:30 each night. 

 

Both TENs are to permit the on-supply of alcohol, the provision of regulated entertainment and the provision of late night refreshment during these periods.

Comments and observations on the application

 

The Rising Sun benefits from a premises licence authorising a range of licensable activities.  The TENs were submitted appropriately and provided to the relevant responsible authorities upon the day of submission.  In response Havering’s Environmental Health Officer submitted a representation against the TENs.

 

SUMMARY

 

The Licensing Sub-Committee must promote the licensing objectives and must have regard to the Secretary of State’s National Guidance created under Section 182 of the Licensing Act 2003 and the Council’s own Statement of Licensing Policy. 

 

The Applicants were represented by a licensing agent who made submissions on their behalf.

The Sub-Committee considered an application for two Temporary Event Notices by The Rising Sun (Astra Lounge), situated at 64-68 High Street Hornchurch RM12 4UW. Representations had been received from:

 

-   The Council’s Environmental Health team, on the grounds of the prevention of public nuisance.

 

The Sub-Committee must promote the licensing objectives and must have regard to the Secretary of State’s National Guidance created under S182 of the Licensing Act and the Council’s own Statement of Licensing Policy and decide whether a counter notice should be issued under s105 of the Licensing Act 2005.

 

The Sub-Committee heard from Mike Richardson and George Pater, on behalf of the Council’s Environmental Health Team, who had nothing further material to add to their written representations apart from:

 

-           The visit to the premises on 22.10.2021 demonstrated loud music escaping from Astra Lounge. Their team have considered initiating prosecution as the premises is subject to an abatement notice.

 

-           Within the structure of the Astra lounge, there is a large gap of 50-60cm between the roof and the top of the wall, running around the entire structure which results in noise escaping from the lounge and on to residential area.

 

-           The lounge can be described as a marquee with a garage door. As a result, the structure is not set up to prevent sound escaping from the lounge.

 

-           A noise limiter condition doesn’t address their concerns given the structure of the lounge.

 

The Sub-Committee heard from the applicants and their agent who had nothing further material to add to their written representations apart from:

 

-           They appreciated the lounge needed a longer term sound proofing solution and an upgraded automatic  ...  view the full decision text for item 3.
