Let us know your views on new Licensing Policy proposals

Havering Council is currently consulting on a new Licensing Policy to come into force from January 2016.

The policy has been rewritten to make it easier to understand. There is a new chapter which describes the application process and what applicants can expect.

There are three areas where special policies are proposed.

In Romford Town Centre, within the ring road, and in St Andrews Ward in Hornchurch, applicants will have to provide evidence in their application,  that if their licence is granted, it will not have any adverse impact on the area. A special policy will apply to Harold Hill for applications for off-premises sales of alcohol only.

The deadline for completing consultation responses is Monday 31 August 2015.
