  Operating Schedule

   

  a) General - all four licensing objectives (b,c,d,e)

  The types of regulated entertainments firstly re-instate normal hotel, pub and family facilities and entertainments that were previously unregulated then facilities for live music, dancing and voice etc are proposed in support of bookings, events and the core business of the hotel. No new steps have been identified by risk assessment in relation to the four licensing objectives, except as below.

   

  b) The prevention of Crime and Disorder

  No risks that are not covered by other legislation. The Inn has a management team that have been deemed responsible and who are at all times considered with the safety and well being of the customers.

   

  c) Public safety

  No risks that are not covered by other legislation. The management of the Inn use all available health and safety legislation, tools and advice to ensure the safety of the public, both as customers and those merely passing. The prevention of public nuisance.

   

  d) The prevention of public nuisance

  Live music will end no later than 23.00. Recorded music will end at 00.00. As the Inn has bedrooms it is not in the best interest of the business to carry on music later than this, as it would be detrimental to the sleep of the residents staying with us.

   

  e) The protection of children from harm

  The restrictions set out in the Licensing Act 2003 will apply but children will be permitted on the premises between 09.30 and 21.00 as long as they are dining. Children as residents will be allowed on the premises throughout their stay. At all times children will be seated away from the bar and in a non smoking area of the pub. No unusual risks of harm to children that are not already covered by other legislation have been identified.
