  General

        We have applied for an extended period between the cessation of the supply of alcohol and the closure of the premises to give us the option to allow for a more gradual dispersal of customers.  The style and operation of the pub will not differ significantly during the extended hours.  Where this is appropriate, non-alcoholic refreshment will be available in the extended period.

        The premises will respect Spirit Group's Approach to Responsible Drinking (a copy of which is enclosed in support of this application).  Our policies change at regular intervals to reflect current trends and it would be inappropriate to standardise them on a permanent basis.  The enclosed policy is included for information only and not as suggested conditions or to form part of any other Operating Schedule.

  Public safety

        Public safety is integral to the way that the Spirit Group runs its business and is reviewed regularly through our health and safety policy.  This policy is fully briefed and trained to all management and staff and we will continue to train our staff to the standards required by relevant legislation.

        Free drinking water will be available at all times.

   

  The prevention of public nuisance

        Additional patrols will take place by members of staff, internally and externally, to limit any noise pollution when entertainment is being offered within the premises.

        If appropriate, notices will be displayed asking our customers to respect our neighbours when leaving the premises.

        Where already used text/radio pagers will continue to be used for the additional hours of trading and will be monitored by a responsible member of staff.

        Soft drinks and non-alcoholic refreshment will be available if we decide to use the option to stay open for an extended period between the cessation of the supply of alcohol and the closure of premises (see above under General).

   

  The protection of children from harm

        When children are allowed upon the premises, any entertainment offered within the premises will be suitable for young persons.
