Minutes:

The Chair, having been made aware of the respondent’s request to make an application, invited them to speak.

 

The respondent’s agent advised that the premises was due to be sold and requested an adjournment for a period of one month to allow the sale and transfer of the premises licence.

 

All parties were invited to make observations on the proposal. Trading Standards, Surrey Police, and the Licensing Authority voiced that it was proportionate for the hearing to be adjourned while the sale took place.

 

The Sub-Committee adjourned to consider the adjournment request.

 

The Sub-Committee reconvened to advise that a date would be set for a month’s time for the Sub-Committee to meet if the sale of the premises had not taken place. The Chair stated the expectation of the Sub-Committee was that between now and the next hearing that the premises licence holder was to comply with their licence conditions, and the Licencing Authority were asked to visit in the intervening period to check such compliance.

 

Resolved to adjourn the hearing to 27 March 2026 if the premises sale had not taken place.
