The Licensing (2003 Act) Sub-Committee decided to suspend the Premises Licence of Bronze Royale, 319 Romford Road, Forest Gate E7 9HA for two months. The Sub-Committee also removed the Designated Premises Supervisor (DPS)[^2] and changed the opening hours to Sunday to Thursday 11:00 to 00:30, and Friday and Saturday 16:00 to 01:00. This decision followed a review instigated by The Metropolitan Police Licensing Team, who asked for the licence to be revoked.

A new restaurant on Green Street, Forest Gate, Deccan Bahar, was scheduled to be considered for a new premises licence. The restaurant was the subject of two noise complaints from local residents. Separately, a Licensing Officer observed the business to be open after 23:00, despite not having a licence, and advised them to stop trading.

The Licensing Sub-Committee granted a licence variation to the off-licence NKS Food Centre in East Ham, allowing the sale of alcohol until 2am on Friday, Saturday and Bank Holidays, but rejected a request to amend existing conditions on the licence relating to the minimum unit size of beers and spirits. The applicant had requested to be allowed to sell single 500ml bottles of beer and 20cl bottles of spirits, to match those being sold in a nearby off-licence, but this was refused. The Sub-Committee also added a condition that a personal licence holder must be on the premises at all times during the sale of alcohol, and required the licence holder to review their bottle marking procedures.

The Licensing Sub-Committee suspended the licence of Kay Viva, a restaurant in Stratford, for two weeks so that the licence holder and Designated Premises Supervisor, Vivian Ezeagu, can receive further training in the licensing regime by a reputable training provider. The licence was suspended following complaints about noise and anti-social behaviour in the vicinity of the premises and a compliance visit that found a number of licensing breaches. Further conditions will be imposed on the licence, which will be detailed in a decision notice to be sent to all parties within five working days of the meeting.
