The sub-committee considered an Objection Notice given by Kent Police, citing the Licensing Objective of prevention of crime and disorder, in response to a Temporary Event Notice served on the Licensing Authority by Mrs Dilber Kyazim Tasim for events to be held at Marmaris Kebab, 1 South Street, Deal, CT14 7W, for late night refreshment on: 29 December 2016 from 23:00 hrs until 02:00 hrs the day following, 30 December 2016 from 23:00 hrs until 02:00 hrs the day following, and 31 December 2016 from 23:00 hrs until 03:00 hrs the day following.

 

On the basis of the representations of the applicant, her representative and the Chief Officer of Police Objection Notice, the sub-committee found the following facts to be established:

 

(i)                   A new CCTV system had been installed in the premises which included new digital cameras with wireless connection.

 

(ii)                 Mrs D Tasim had delivered in-house training to her staff which covered topics within the Licensing Act 2003.

 

(iii)                Mrs D Tasim and Mr J Ashmore had completed conflict management training.

 

(iv)                Staff would complete and maintain an incident book.

 

(v)                 Posters had been ordered to be displayed in the premises requesting that customers leave the premises quietly and that a zero tolerance policy in regard to anti-social behaviour would be in operation.

 

(vi)                Mrs D Tasim was a member of Dover Partnership Against Crime and Pub Watch.

 

(vii)              An SIA trained doorman would be on the premises during the licensable hours applied for.

 

(viii)             Staff had been trained in how to ask customers to leave the premises and persistent troublemakers would be banned.

 

(ix)                Mrs D Tasim and Mr J Ashmore would be on the premises during the licensable hours applied for.

 

In reaching its finding, the sub-committee took into account S105 of the Licensing Act 2003, the guidance with regard to temporary event notices and the council’s statement of licensing policy.

 

RESOLVED:   That a Counter Notice would not be given.
