Resolved-
 
As a
preliminary issue, the Panel considered the Licence Holder’s
application for a further adjournment. The Panel took into account
the reasons for the request offered by the Licence Holder and heard
from representatives of the Police and West Yorkshire Trading
Standards on this point. Having done so, the Panel decided that it
was in the public interest and in the interests of justice that the
hearing should proceed. The Panel had written submissions and
explanations from the Licence Holder and was therefore able to
consider these when it heard the substantive review
application.
 
The hearing
of the review then proceeded. At the end of the hearing, the Panel
took time to deliberate and resolved unanimously as
follows:
 
Having
carefully considered the application for review; all valid
representations made by the parties to the hearing; valid written
representations received during the statutory period; the published
statement of licensing policy; and relevant statutory guidance, the
Panel considered that the Licence Holder had failed to uphold the
licensing objectives, based on the evidence heard. Therefore, the
Panel determined that the premises licence be revoked in respect of
Fresh Market, 263 Allerton Road, Bradford, BD15 7QU.
 
Reason: It
is considered that the revocation is necessary, appropriate, and
proportionate to ensure compliance and the promotion of the
licensing objectives.
