Report of the Revenues Manager attached.

The Interim Licensing Manager presented a report following the outcome of recent consultation carried out and asked the committee to consider three proposed revisions to the Council’s existing Licensing Policy. These were detailed in section 4.1 of the report and centred on vaping devices /

e-cigarettes, relevant signage for same and, that all operators’ dispatch staff must undertake appropriate Safeguarding training.

Whilst the report indicated that this would be presented to the meeting of Council on 28 February 2018 it was felt the following meeting on 21 March 2018 was more appropriate. This was due to the heavy budget agenda at the next meeting of the Council.

RESOLVED (Unanimously):

That the Committee recommends to Council at its meeting on 21 March 2018, the formal adoption of the three proposed revisions to the Council’s current Licensing Policy (as detailed in section 4.1 of the report).
