VERBAL FEEDBACK FROM THE ALG LICENSING CONFERENCE ON 6 FEBRUARY 2006.
Minutes:
(Agenda Item 9):
The Chair invited the Licensing Officer, Daliah Barrett, to feed back to the Committee on the views and discussions that were raised during the ALG’s recent conference Licensing London – What Now?
Ms Barrett reported that there were presentations outlining the views of the ALG, the British Beer and Pub Association, the London Borough of Havering (chosen the government’s review of the new laws), the Association of Chief Police Officers, LACORS, and the Home Office. There was general agreement from all agencies that the implementation of the Licensing Act 2003 had gone smoothly and without much criticism. However, it would remain to be seen the effects over a longer period, especially during summer months.
