A premises licence is required under the Licensing Act 2003 (the ‘Act’) for the sale of alcohol, regulated entertainment or for the provision of late night refreshment (i.e. the supply of hot food and drink between 11pm and 5am). The four licensing objectives to be considered when determining the application, and relevant representations, are: the prevention of crime & disorder, public safety, the prevention of public nuisance, and the protection of children from harm The Application 2. Mr Thomas Janes has made an application under Section 17 of the Act for the licensable activities of ‘sale of alcohol by retail’ and ‘recorded music’. A copy of the application is attached at Appendix 1 and if granted with the additional conditions agreed by the applicant, would allow the premises to operate as follows: Licensable Activity Days Times Sale of Alcohol by Retail Friday and Saturday 11am until 11pm On the premises Provision of Live Music Friday and Saturday 11am until 11pm Indoors Provision of Recorded Music Friday and Saturday 11am until 11pm Indoors Functions or events which include the provision of alcohol, live or recorded music shall not exceed 12 occasions per year and 2 per calendar month. Mandatory Conditions 3. The Act provides for the following seven mandatory conditions to be attached to all premises licences authorising the sale of alcohol for consumption on the premises:- (a) Under Section 19(2) of the Licensing Act 2003, no supply of alcohol shall be made under this premises licence at a time when there is no designated premises supervisor in respect of the premises licence, or at a time when the designated premises supervisor does not hold a personal licence or his personal licence is suspended. (b) Under Section 19(3) of the Licensing Act 2003 every supply of alcohol under the premises licence must be made or authorised by a person who holds a personal licence. (c) The responsible person must ensure that staff on relevant premises do not carry out, arrange or participate in any irresponsible promotions in relation to the premises. In this paragraph, an irresponsible promotion means any one or more of the following activities, or substantially similar activities, carried on for the purpose of encouraging the sale or supply of alcohol for consumption on the premises: I. games or other activities which require or encourage, or are designed to require or encourage, individuals to drink a quantity of alcohol within a time limit (other than to drink alcohol sold or supplied on the premises before the cessation of the period in which the responsible person is authorised to sell or supply alcohol), or drink as much alcohol as possible (whether within a time limit or otherwise); II. provision of unlimited or unspecified quantities of alcohol free or for a fixed or discounted fee to the public or to a group defined by a particular characteristic in a manner which carries a significant risk of undermining a licensing objective; III. provision of free or discounted alcohol or any other thing as a prize to encourage or reward the purchase and consumption of alcohol over a period of 24 hours or less in a manner which carries a significant risk of undermining a licensing objective; IV. selling or supplying alcohol in association with promotional posters or flyers on, or in the vicinity of, the premises which can reasonably be considered to condone, encourage or glamorise anti-social behaviour or to refer to the effects of drunkenness in any favourable manner; V. dispensing alcohol directly by one person into the mouth of another (other than where that other person is unable to drink without assistance by reason of disability). (d) The responsible person must ensure that free potable water is provided on request to customers where it is reasonably available. (e) The premises licence holder must ensure that an age verification policy is adopted in respect of the premises in relation to the sale or supply of alcohol. The designated premises supervisor in relation to the premises licence must ensure that the supply of alcohol at the premises is carried on in accordance with the age verification policy. The policy must require individuals who appear to the responsible person to be under 18 years of age (or such older age as may be specified in the policy) to produce on request, before being served alcohol, identification bearing their photograph, date of birth and either a holographic mark, or an ultraviolet feature. (f) The responsible person must ensure that where any of the following alcoholic drinks is sold or supplied for consumption on the premises (other than alcoholic drinks sold or supplied having been made up in advance ready for sale or supply in a securely closed container) it is available to customers in the following measures: I. beer or cider: ½ pint; II. gin, rum, vodka or whisky: 25ml or 35ml; and III. still wine in a glass: 125ml; These measures must be displayed in a menu, price list or other printed material which is available to customers on the premises and if a customer does not in relation to a sale of alcohol specify the quantity of alcohol to be sold, the customer is made aware that these measures are available. (g) A relevant person shall ensure that no alcohol is sold or supplied for consumption on or off the premises for a price which is less than the permitted price. For the purposes of this condition 'duty' is to be construed in accordance with the Alcoholic Liquor Duties Act 1979; 'permitted price' is the price found by applying the formula - P = D + (D x V) where; P is the permitted price; D is the rate of duty chargeable in relation to the alcohol as if the duty were charged on the date of the sale or supply of the alcohol; and V is the rate of value added tax chargeable in relation to the alcohol as if the value added tax were charged on the date of the sale or supply of the alcohol. A 'relevant person' means the holder of the premises licence, the designated premises supervisor (if any) in respect of such a licence, or the personal licence holder who makes or authorises a supply of alcohol under such a licence. 'Valued added tax' means value added tax charged in accordance with the Value Added Tax Act 1994. The permitted price must be rounded up to the nearest penny. A change to the permitted price which would apply as a result of a change to the rate of duty or VAT charged in relation to alcohol would not apply until the expiry of the period of 14 days beginning on the day on which the change in the rate of duty or VAT takes effect. Conditions Consistent with the Operating Schedule (Proposed Conditions) 4. The following conditions have been identified from the operating schedule (paragraph ‘M’ on the application) or agreed following consultation with the applicant. Conditions agreed between the applicant and Community Safety & Neighbourhood Nuisance Team (a) No deliveries or refuse collections shall be made to the premises before 8am or after 6pm Monday to Saturday and at no time on Sundays and Bank or public holidays. (b) Prior to the commencement of any licensable activities including the provision of recorded and live music at any time, an acoustic assessment shall be carried out which includes a site specific background noise survey, an assessment of predicted noise sources (including vehicle noise on entry and exit), mitigation recommendations and a detailed noise management plan. The acoustic noise survey and any relevant mitigation measures shall be submitted to and approved by the Community Safety & Neighbourhood Nuisance Team (CSNN) and recommendation implemented before licensable activities, including the provision of live and recorded music at any time shall commence. (c) Functions or events which include the provision of alcohol, live or recorded music shall not exceed 12 occasions per year and 2 per calendar month. (d) Functions or events which include the provision of alcohol, live or recorded music shall take place on Fridays or Saturdays only. (e) The sale of alcohol for consumption on the premises and the provision of live and recorded music, shall be limited to the following times only: 11am until 11pm on Fridays and Saturdays.

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

  • Norfolk Natterjack
    7 THE NORFOLK 4 NATTERJACK The quarterly bulletin of the Norfolk 3 Norwich Naturalists' Society No. November, 1984 HARD CHOICES During the summer a West Country friend was trying to describe to me the taste of roast heron. He is not a vandal, but a fish-breeder and fish- raiser with several acres of ponds which act as magnets to fish -eating birds. They are not deterred by fine netting around the ponds, by a cat's cradle of fine fishing line criss-crossing over the water, by swinging cut-out shapes on long sticks, or by tinkling or banging from a variety of suspended, wind-blown objects. Only the dawn stalk with a shotgun offers the comfort of an illegal and brief respit Broadly, it may be said, conservationists seek to maintain life, and faced with decisions about conserving particular areas, would prefer not to interfere: but almost always conservation involves controlling which sometimes also means killing. The bulk of our plant and animal communities are not stable, climax communities, but are some stage in a dynamic succession of stages. If we decide, usually quite arbitrarily, that we wish to sustain some particular rare plant or •animal or assemblage of plants and animals, we are at the same time declaring war .upon the competitors of, the predators of, the successors to, our chosen protectorat Taking a part of nature under our wing immediatelv involves us with many decisions, and to meet these we need accurate and detailed knowledge of the species involved, of their life cycles and of their interrelationships.
