Licence granted at second attempt

A bid to turn a former optician’s practice in the Ashton-in-Makerfield area of Wigan into a new pub has granted at the second time of asking. Councillors on the town’s licensing sub-committee turned down the application for a new premises licence for The Colliery on Downall Green Road, Bryn, seven months ago after nearby residents voiced objections.

They stipulate that communicatiion between Wigan council's ‘Central Watch’ and other licensed premises by way of phone or radio links shall be provided at the premises and kept in good working order at all times. Every incident of crime or disorder on the premises shall be reported via text/pager or radio link to Central Watch by the designated premises supervisor or a nominated member of staff.

The premise must also operate an effective CCTV system which is to be maintained in good working order at all times the premises are open for business. Ms Duffy has to ensure that the CCTV is operated in accordance with the latest Information Commissions Officers’ guidance and is compliant with the relevant provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998.
