To consider an application for the review of a Premises Licence for Yates’s, 7-9 Friar Street, Reading, RG1 1DP.

Minutes:

The Assistant Director of Planning, Transport and Regulatory Services submitted a report on an application by Thames Valley Police for the review of the Premises Licence in respect of Yates, 7-9 Friar Street, Reading, RG1 1DB.

 

The report stated that Thames Valley Police had requested a review of the Premises Licence to prevent the licensing objectives of the prevention of crime and disorder, the protection of children from harm and public safety from being further undermined as the premises had been associated with serious disorder.  The report explained that two particularly notable incidents of mass disorder had occurred in January 2020 and the intervention of the Police had been required on both occasions to maintain order and control of the crowd.

 

A copy of the review application was attached to the report at Appendix RS-1.

 

The report advised that a representation had been received from Reading Borough Council Licensing Team which was attached to the report at Appendix RS-3.

 

The report stated that the Premises Licence Holder was Stonegate Pub Company Limited, and the Designated Premises Supervisor was Mr John Button.
