Local board role in alcohol licence applications
|
|
|
Resolution
number HM/2014/130
MOVED by Member MFP Chan, seconded by Member WI
Flavell:
That the Henderson-Massey Local Board:
a) Provides the following feedback on the role of local board on
alcohol licence applications as initially workshopped on Tuesday 15 July
2014:
i) The Henderson-Massey Local Board wants the ability to
provide their views to the District Licensing Committee (DLC) by way of a
Local Board Report and that this report had to be taken into account by the
District Licensing Committees when reaching their decision. This could
be achieved by including in the LAP the requirement for any Local Board
Report to be taken into account by the DLC in reaching a decision. The Board
would expect Local Boards would only prepare report on license applications
that are of concern to them, not all applications.
ii) The Henderson-Massey local board does not want the power
to object to licences.
iii) Communities would need expert input to help them complete
objections to licence applications as the applicants often have skilled legal
teams.
iv) The Board is concerned that there is no compulsion in the
LAP to take local board opinions and evidence into account, which renders the
board potentially ineffective in representing the views of the community, if
the DLC chooses to ignore the local board opinion and evidence. There
also needs to be provision in the LAP for the DLC to explain why they ignored
local board opinion and evidence in cases where they have done this.
