Licensing (2003 Act) Sub-Committee

Licensing (2003 Act) Sub-Committee - Wednesday 2nd October 2024 10.00 a.m.

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.
