Oral Representation received from:
Members noted that there had been no additional Representations received from any other Responsible Authority or any Interested Party.
Additional Information:
Paignton Rugby Football and Cricket Club currently has three separate licences operating under the same premises. There are two Club Premises Certificates, one for the Rugby Club and the second for the Cricket Club.. Both Certificates permit alcohol and regulated entertainment inside the club house until 1.00am for Members and signed in guests.
The third is a Premises Licence which is granted to Paignton Rugby Club and permits the general public access to the Club House until 10.00pm. Paignton Ruby Club sought clarity to align the Premise Licence with the same authorisations granted under their Club Premises Certificate which would enable to permit members of the public to use the Club House and facilities and alleviate confusion with enforcement agencies.
Members noted that an Abatement Notice has been served on Paignton Rugby Club in April 2012 and is still operative. In addition Members noted that the concerns raised in the Representations by Interested Parties related to similar issues which resulted in the service of the Notice in 2012.
The Council’s Senior Lawyer advised Members that the wording throughout the Applicant’s operating schedule needed to be specific and enforceable to the Rugby Club’s Premises Licence. Members were advised that a number of amendments needed to be made to the wording of this application to ensure that there was no ambiguity when it came to enforcement, should Members resolve to grant the licence.
The Council’s Senior Lawyer highlighted to Members and the parties present where the number of amendments were needed, as follows:
