Brief Description of Decision:

Commencement of consultation on the review of the Council’s Cumulative Impact Policy. 

Reasons for the Decision:

The Council is statutorily required to review a Cumulative Impact Policy every three years. The Licensing Act 2003 is clear as to the steps which must be taken where a cumulative impact assessment has been published.

Details of alternative options considered and rejected:

The Council could allow the Cumulative Impact Policy to expire, which would in effect remove the Cumulative Impact Assessment for Wickersley. However, this would leave the Council open to legal challenge as this would not be consistent with Section 5A of the Licensing Act 2003.

None

(If any)

None
