The Licensing Sub-Committee convened to review the premises licence for Nick Market, and ultimately decided to revoke the licence due to persistent breaches of licensing objectives related to crime and disorder. The review was prompted by the discovery of smuggled goods on the premises, including non-duty paid cigarettes, hand-rolling tobacco, and non-compliant vape products. The committee determined that the premises had been used for persistent criminal conduct and that the licence holder had failed to take adequate remedial action.
