Report of the Executive Director Environment.

The Committee considered a Report of the Executive Director Environment concerning the Gambling Act 2005.

A Member urged officers to ensure that all residents across the City should be involved in these types of consultations going forward, as opposed to just the main, headline residential associations. The Chairman welcomed this comment and would raise it with officers outside of the Committee.  

RESOLVED – the Committee agreed that the draft Statement of Licensing Principles (Appendix 1), The Gambling Local Area Profile (Appendix 2) and the Guidance on Undertaking Local Gambling Risk Assessments (Appendix 3) as the Corporation’s ‘Statement of Licensing Principles’ should be recommended to the Court of Common Council for adoption in line with paragraph 17.
