application to vary premises licence under the licensing act 2003 - the brown jug, horsham lane, upchurchMr Barnes, the Applicant, presented his case. He explained that the application consisted of three main themes: a 'tidying up' process with ancillary activities; a request to allow recorded music on New Year's Eve and a provision for live music, twelve times a year. He reminded the Sub-Committee that a previous application to hold 24 live music events had been refused. He considered that since then the situation had changed; twelve events were now requested and a new Designated Premises Supervisor had been employed. The previous application had been opposed by a neighbour but the applicant had no knowledge of any objections from residents with regard to the current application. He considered there was community support for the application and the variations could benefit the amenities of the rural area. He suggested that a sound proofing system could be installed between the pub and the adjoining property. RESOLVED:
