Minutes: The Panel carefully considered all the information presented, both written and oral, from:

The Panel noted the amended conditions proposed by the Licensing Officer at Thames Valley Police, and recognised that there had not been any further representation from Responsible Authorities. The Panel bore in mind the promotion of the four licensing objectives, the relevant objectives in this case being potential for noise nuisance, protection of children from harm and crime and disorder.
The Panel decided that granting the licence would not have an adverse impact on the promotion of the four licensing objectives, and agreed to grant the Licence.
The Panel were satisfied that the mediation meeting had dealt with the concerns of residents, and recognised that three of the public representations had been withdrawn following this meeting. The Panel were pleased with the efforts made to minimise noise by moving the outside smoking area away from the residential side of the property, and fixing the problematic and loud extractor fan in the kitchen.
The Panel also recognised that the previous leaseholder of the property had managed the establishment in such a way which caused a public nuisance, and it was hoped that these problems would be resolved following a change of management.
In summary, the Panel granted the variation application subject to the incorporation of the bullet points included in the Licensing Officer’s report:
