The Sub-Committee were informed that that the application to transfer and vary the Designated Premises Supervisor had now been withdrawn. Representations in respect of the application had been received from the Metropolitan Police Service, a Ward Councillor and South Ruislip Residents Association in support of the review on Crime Prevention licensing objective. The Sub-Committee heard from the applicant for the review, Shabeg Negra, Public Protection Manager who set out the reason for bringing the review, which related to continued breaches and general mis-management by the Licence Holder. Mr Ian Meens was called as a witness by Mr Negra The Sub-Committee heard representations from Ian Wares - Metropolitan Police and a Ward Councillor in support of the application for a review. The Licence Holder then addressed the Sub-Committee and advised that she and her husband had been running the shop since August 2014 and had installed a CCTV system in August that retained footage for a 30 day period. The Licence Holder made it clear that her mother had not worked in the shop since August and that since this time she had ensured that the shop closed on time every evening. Following deliberation, the Sub-Committee unanimously agreed that the application be deferred to enable officers to carry out a full compliance check and for CCTV footage to be provided for the 30 days prior to the hearing. The Sub-Committee considered that the information requested was relevant in considering the review in light of the information provided by the Licence Holder. Decision – That the application be deferred to enable:- 1) A full compliance check to be carried out. 2) CCTV footage for the 30 day period prior to the hearing to be provided.
