General - all four licensing objectives:- The types of regulated entertainments proposed re-instate the normal pub entertainments that were previously un-regulated. No new steps have been identified by risk assessment in regulation to the four licensing objectives, except as below. I have considered the terms of your local licensing policy in preparing this application The Prevention of crime and disorder:- Providing a 30 minute extension of opening hours after end of the sale of alcohol, will promote this objective as the last drink will be consumed less quickly, with access to the pub's toilet facilities. Not less than 5 working days written noticed will be provided to Police when 'event days' are planned (Section M) Public Safety:- Function bookings will be limited to 100 people, my risk assessment identifies no other risk of crowding The prevention of public nuisance:- Action taken to minimise noise, closed windows when needed Advice to patrons when leaving premises at night Live music will end at 00.00 Recorded music will end at 00.00 All windows will be closed after 00.00 Recorded music volume will be reduced at 23.30 The protection of children from harm:- The restrictions set out in the Licensing Act 2003 will apply.

At all times when live or recorded music takes place, doors and windows must be closed and kept closed. 3. A sound limiter will be installed and used, when amplified live or recorded music is taking place. The level of the sound limiter will be agreed by an Environmental Health Officer. 4. The Licensing Authority make this statement under section 177A(3) of the Licensing Act 2003 to the effect that section 177A(1) and (2) of the Licensing Act 2003 do not apply to this licence. This means that the premises cannot hold music events outside of the terms of their premises licence, i.e., the terms of the deregulation in section 177A(1) and (2) of the Licensing Act 2003 allowing music events to be held without permission on the premises licence does not apply to these premises.
