Issue - meetings

The Committee was asked to consider a report which detailed an amendment to the District’s Street Trading Policy and the application process.

The Senior Licensing Practitioner responded to Members questions with regard to the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) Disclosure.  Members were informed that the Chief Officer of Police was one of the agencies consulted during the Street Trading Application process and any concerns would be identified during this consultation process.  The Senior Licensing Practitioner informed Members that the decision to remove the need for a Basic CRB Disclosure would be a countywide decision.

It was noted that Councillor S. P. Shannon voted against the Recommendation.

RESOLVED that any reference to undertake a Basic Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) Disclosure be removed from the Council’s Street Trading Policy.
