The Licensing (Hearings) Sub-Committee of Leicester Council is scheduled to consider applications for the review of existing premises licences for two businesses. The committee will also review the minutes of previous meetings.
Application for a Review of an Existing Premises Licence - Oasis, 53 Church Gate, Leicester
The Sub-Committee is scheduled to consider a report concerning an application for a review of the existing premises licence for Oasis, located at 53 Church Gate, Leicester. This item is listed as a public session.
Application for a Review of an Existing Premises Licence - Local Mini Market, 51a Upperton Road, Leicester
A report is scheduled to be presented regarding an application for a review of the existing premises licence for the Local Mini Market, situated at 51a Upperton Road, Leicester. The application for review was made by Leicestershire Police on 3 March 2026, citing concerns related to the prevention of crime and disorder, public safety, the prevention of public nuisance, and the protection of children from harm. The report indicates that Leicestershire Police are concerned that the management of the premises is failing to promote these licensing objectives, with multiple breaches of the premises licence conditions observed and illicit goods found on the premises. The current licence permits the supply of alcohol and the opening of the premises from Monday to Sunday, 8:00 am to 11:00 pm. No representations were received from other parties regarding this review application. The report outlines potential decisions the Members of the Sub-Committee may make, including rejecting the application, modifying licence conditions, removing the designated premises supervisor, suspending the licence, or revoking it. The report also details relevant sections of statutory guidance under the Licensing Act 2003 and the council's own Statement of Licensing Policy. The report notes that the review was previously adjourned on 23 April 2026 due to the need for an interpreter for the licence holder.

The Sub-Committee is scheduled to confirm the minutes of its previous meetings held on 4 March 2026 and 19 March 2026. These minutes are attached as Appendix A to the agenda.

The procedural guide for the Licensing Sub-Committee hearings is available, outlining the process for introducing participants, gathering information, and decision-making.
