Sexual Entertainment Venues - Consultation Responses pdf icon PDF 70 KB

To consider report of the Director of Resources.

Minutes:

The Committee received a report which informed Members of the responses received during the eight week consultation exercise concerning the requirement for Sexual Entertainment Venues (SEVs) to be licensed within the South Bucks area.

 

The report set out the 9 responses which were received during the consultation, all of which were in support of adopting the legislation requiring SEVs to be licensed.

 

The Committee noted the following verbal updates to the report:

·         Paragraph 4.1 - a total of 82 consultation letters and a number of emails were sent out to people who lived and worked in the area and details of the consultation were also posted on the Council’s website.

·         Paragraph 6.1 and 6.2 - that the decision to reaffirm the Council’s adoption of the amendments to Schedule 3 of the 1982 Act bySection 27 of the 2009 Act relating to the licensing of SEVs with effect from 1 January 2015 comes under the remit of Council rather than Licensing Committee and therefore the Licensing Committee was asked to make recommendations to Council.

 

Having considered the responses to the consultation, the Committee RESOLVED to RECOMMEND to Council that the adoption of the amendments to Schedule 3 of the 1982 Act bySection 27 of the 2009 Act relating to the licensing of Sexual Entertainment Venues with effect from 1 January 2015 be reaffirmed and the appropriate newspaper notices be posted as required by the legislation.
