Annex 2 - Conditions consistent with the Operating Schedule
General - all four licensing objectives
I have undertaken my own risk assessment to take the following proposed steps.
The types of regulated entertainment proposed materially do no more than reinstate the normal pub entertainment that was previously unregulated.
No new steps have been identified in relation to the four licensing objectives save as below.
The Prevention of Crime and Disorder
No further risks have been identified which need to be addressed, save as below
Any person exercising a security activity (as defined by paragraph 2 (1)(a) of schedule 2 of the Private Security Industry Act 2001) shall be licensed by the Security Industry Authority.
Such a person will be employed at the premises at the discretion of the designated premises supervisor/holder of the Premises Licence.
Any person as defined in condition (1) will clearly display his name badge at all times whilst on duty.
No customers apparently carrying open bottles upon entry shall be admitted to the premises at any times the premises are open to the public.
Where CCTV is installed with recording facilities such recordings shall be retained for a period of 30 days and made available within a reasonable time upon request by the police.
Alcoholic and other drinks may not be removed from the premises in open containers save for consumption in any external area provided for that purpose.
Public Safety
No further risks have been identified which need to be addressed, save as below
To comply with the reasonable requirements of the fire officer from time to time.
To comply with the reasonable requirements of the building control officer.
The Prevention of Public Nuisance
No further risks have been identified which need to be addressed, save as below

Noise and vibration shall not emanate from the premises so as to cause a nuisance to nearby properties.
For premises where entertainment frequently takes place, music and associated sources (including DJs, and amplified voices) should generally not be audible inside noise sensitive property at any time. Where entertainment takes place less frequently, such noise should not be audible inside noise sensitive property between 23.00 and 07.00 hours.
All external doors and windows shall be kept closed when entertainment is being provided, other than for access and egress and in the event of an emergency. If additional ventilation is subsequently necessary, then it shall be attenuated in accordance with a scheme submitted to the licensing authority.
The Protection of Children from Harm
The restrictions set out in the Licensing Act 2003 will apply. No unusual or additional risks of harm to children have been identified.
Children under the age of 16 shall not be permitted to enter the premises after 20:00.
