Reference was made to page 20 of the agenda and the non-standard timings and it was questioned whether at the start of British Summer Time (BST) the terminal hour for all licensable activities would be extended by one hour, beyond 3am. It was confirmed that the terminal hour would be extended for the duration of BST, however this would remain at 3am.

In response to a question regarding other nearby late night establishments, Ms Barrett stated that each application was considered on its own merits. She added that there were a couple of nearby Turkish restaurants that had a licence until 5am and the McDonalds at the Hollywood Green location had a licence for late night refreshment between 11pm – 5am.
