Additional documents:

Minutes:

Upon opening the meeting, the Licensing Team Leader, Ms Daliah Barrett, informed the Sub-Committee that additional evidence had been submitted by the applicant’s representative, Mr David Dadds. Additional evidence had also been submitted by a resident, Ms Joyce Adams. The Sub-Committee asked all parties if they objected to the additional evidence that had been submitted to be made part of the hearing.

The applicant’s representative, Mr David Dadds, stated that he objected to the video evidence that had been submitted by the resident as it had not been submitted in advance and he had not had time to deal with any issues raised in order to address it.

Ms Joyce Adams, resident, stated that the additional evidence (video footage) that had been collected had only been taken in the past weekend and had been sent immediately after it had been taken. Therefore, the evidence could not be submitted any earlier.

In relation to the evidence submitted by the applicant, Mr Dadds stated that the evidence provided by the applicant related to another premises in the area and not related to the premises being considered at the hearing. Therefore, admittance of the evidence was not prejudiced. 

Mr Mark Bloom, resident, stated that he wished to object to the evidence submitted by the applicant being made part of hearing as not enough time had been provided to consider the evidence and it was unfair for Sub-Committee to decide not to allow evidence submitted by residents but allow evidence submitted by the applicant to be made part of the hearing.

Mr Colm Quinn, resident, stated that the additional evidence provided by the applicant did not negate the continuous noise and disturbance emanating from the applicant’s premises.

At 7:15pm, the Sub-Committee decided to adjourn in order to consider the submissions made. The meeting reconvened at 7:26pm.

The Sub-Committee stated that there had been late submissions and objections had been submitted on both sides. The Sub-Committee decided not to admit any of the late submissions as part of the hearing, but noted that parties could speak in relation to the evidence and so could make verbal representations regarding the evidence.
