2. The Panel heard evidence from the management of The King and Queen Public House as to the measures to be put into place to ensure the maintenance of the Licensing Objectives.
3. The Panel heard evidence regarding the current premises licence for The King and Queen Public House allowed for the sale of alcohol until 1:00am, the same time as requested for regulated entertainment.
4. The Panel heard evidence that there had been a total of five complaints against the premises in the previous fifteen months of operation.
