Licence conditions (7)
  1. The SPAR Store will operate a CCTV system - cameras covering all areas of the SPAR Store. A suitable Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) system will be operational at the premises at all times when licensable activities are being carried out and at any other times where members of the public are present on the premises.
  2. The staff will be fully trained and some staff members may have obtained the APLH level 2 certificate and all will receive “in house” training on the sale of alcohol and will be re-trained as a minimum every 12 weeks.
  3. We have a due diligence policy and undertake internal test purchases. The scanning system will prompt the staff to check the age of the customer when the alcohol is purchased.
  4. The public safety measures with which the premises are provided will be maintained in good working order, and their adequacy will be determined on a regular basis, by carrying out a risk assessment. I understand that the safety of occupants is also influenced by numbers of persons present, their disposition and the activities taking place, and therefore undertake to maintain a safe occupancy level.
  5. The SPAR Store operates a refusal book and also a due diligence recording system by way of the till. This is in relation to age restricted products. An age checking report is available in store where refusals of service are made. The PLH/DPS staff will ask for proof of age from any person appearing to be under the age of 25 who attempts to purchase alcohol at the premises.
  6. We operate the “Think 25” policy but do sell to 18-25 year olds on production of approved identification. Alcohol will not be kept near the front entrance. An age checking report is available in store where refusals of service are made.
  7. Minimise the risk of proxy sales - safeguards to be in place to try to ensure that alcohol is not purchased or obtained for young people by relatives or older friends (proxy provision). The applicant will work actively with the police to minimise this risk. Staff training to include the risk from proxy sales.

Licensed hours are the most a premises may open or trade under its licence, not its actual opening times.
