Licensing Act 2003 – Section 53A, public notice of application for summary review of premises licence
Cock Beck, Pendas Way, Stanks, Leeds, LS15 8LA
An application has been made to Leeds City Council for a Summary Review of the above licence.
The grounds for review are that in the opinion of a senior police officer the premises are associated with serious crime, serious disorder, or both.
Over a 4 week period (approx.) West Yorkshire Police have had to attend the premises in relation to three incidents, involving fighting, "mass brawling", the use of weapons, the use of a vehicle as a weapon and numerous arrests. One incident at the premises has been classified as attempted murder.
These incidents sit against a backdrop of complaints to West Yorkshire Police and other agencies, and concerns are expressed about the Premises Manager's ability to operate the premises whilst upholding the Licensing Objectives.
Given the incidents, West Yorkshire Police feel the Prevention of Crime & Disorder and Public Safety is not being maintained.
Representations should be made in writing to Leeds City Council, Entertainment Licensing, Civic Hall, Leeds LS1 1UR, or by email to
entertainment.licensing@leeds.gov.uk
Representations must be made between 12/12/2024 and 27/12/2024.

Notice is hereby given that Home Office Immigration Enforcement have made an application under Section 51 of the Licensing Act 2003 to carry out a review of the premises licence in force at the premises known as:
Charcoal Chicken, 188B Roundhay Road, Leeds, LS8 5PL
The application to review the licence relates to the Prevention of Crime & Disorder licensing objective.
In summary, the grounds for the review are:
On 26 September 2024 an enforcement visit was conducted at the premises following an illegal working allegation. In total, four members of staff were arrested as illegal workers, out of a total of six workers encountered at the premises.
