2          LICENSING ACT 2003 – HEARING REPORT – NEW (SECTION 17) JIMMY’S FARM, WHERSTEAD

The Chairman of the hearing referred to the procedure to be followed, a copy of which had been circulated with the Agenda.

The Head of Natural and Built Environment submitted a report (Paper L34) requesting the Sub-Committee to determine an Application under the 2003 Licensing Act by Big Wheel Promotions Ltd, Jimmy’s Farm, Pannington Hall Lane, Wherstead.

The Licensing Officer also referred to the company profile of AD Health and Safety that had been circulated to Members prior to the meeting.

He advised that since the report had been circulated further negotiations have taken place and agreements reached.  Objections to the application previously submitted by Mr and Mrs Deakin, Environmental Protection and the Chief Officer of Police had now been withdrawn.

Further negotiations had also taken place between the Applicant and the Health and Safety Officer regarding public safety issues.  The Applicant’s Solicitor advised that his client was willing to accept the suggested measures.  The objections from the Health and Safety Officer were then withdrawn.

All objections to the application had therefore been withdrawn and there was no longer any need for the hearing.

RESOLVED

(1)       That the outcome of the negotiations between the Applicant and the Health and Safety Officer be noted.

(2)       That all objections having been withdrawn and the Applicant, Licensing Officer and Health and Safety Officer having confirmed that a hearing was no longer necessary, it be agreed that the hearing should not proceed and be closed.

The business of the meeting was concluded at 9.40 a.m.
