The Sub-Licencing Committee decided on 6th July to suspend the premise license for Trisha's with immediate effect for a period of 14 days. This will allow the owners to implement the new safety measures and make other improvements.
Cllr Aicha Less, Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Communities, Public Protection and Licensing said:
This decision gives Trisha’s sufficient time to make the necessary changes set out by the licensing sub-committee to ensure the venue can operate safely and legally."
"The committee has considered legitimate concerns raised about safety from residents, the police and city inspectors but has also taken into account the willingness from the owner to make changes to preserve a historic Soho venue and unique part of Westminster’s heritage."
"The conditions from the License Sub-Committee highlight considerable changes in conduct and practice that need to happen in order to meet the minimum standards of the licence agreement."
