WEST DUNBARTONSHIRE LICENSING BOARD Report by the Clerk to the Licensing Board Licensing Board – 12 May 2026 Subject: Proposed Extension to On-Sales Premises Licensed Hours for the duration of the 2026 World Cup 1. Purpose 1.1 To allow the Licensing Board to consider a policy on extending licensed hours for On-Sales Premises for matches not involving the Scottish National Team, taking place as part of the 2026 World Cup. 2 Recommendations 2.1 It is recommended that the Licensing Board considers the views of the Local Licensing Forum and decides on one of the following options, (i) Allow a general extension for all matches taking place during the tournament, (ii) A general extension within the terms of the Licensing Board’s current Policy on Licensed hours, or (iii) Make no determination on a general extension, however premises will be free to apply for extended hours in line with the licensing Boards current Statement of Licensing Policy. 2.2 It is recommended that the Members agree on the conditions relating to later opening and control measures specified in paragraphs 4.5 and 4.6 below. 3. Background 3.1 The 2026 World Cup will take place between the 12 June 2026 and 19 July 2026. This competition will take place in the United States of America, Canada and Mexico and as such, several of the matches will be televised at times either outside of normal licensed hours or the matches will end outwith normal licensed hours. 3.2 At the Licensing Board Meeting on 3 March 2026 the Licensing Board agreed to allow for a general extension of licensing hours for premises seeking to show games involving the Scottish National Team only. 3.3 At the March Meeting, the Licensing Board instructed Officers to seek the views of the Local Licensing Forum. Members of the Licensing forum were canvassed for their views on the options contained at paragraphs 2.1 (i) to (iii) ITEM 4 Page 11
Page 12
above. 3.4 8 members of the licensing forum responded to this consultation, with 4 members voting in favour of option 2, as denoted at 2.1 (ii) above and 4 Members voted in support of option 3, as denoted at 2 (iii) above. No forum members voted in favour of a general extension for all matches, as denoted at 2.1 (i). 3.5 In order that Licensing Board Members may make an informed decision, a list of the games kick-off times which will be included within the individual options are listed at appendix 3. 3.6 As referred to at recommendations 2.1 (i) and 2.1 (ii), the Board’s current statement of licensing Policy refers to the sale of alcohol being difficult to justify earlier than 11 a.m. or after 3 a.m. other than in exceptional. circumstances. For information an excerpt from the relevant section of the Board’s Statement of Licensing Policy is appended to this report. 4. Main Issues 4.1 Section 67 of the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 allows a Licensing Board to make a determination extending licensed hours by such a period as the Board may specify in the determination. 4.2 Such a determination may apply to, (a) the whole of the Licensing Board's area or only to specified parts of the area, (b) licensed hours generally or only to specified descriptions of licensed hours, and (c) all licensed premises in the Board's area or only to specified descriptions of such premises. 4.3 in considering a determination under Section 67, the Licensing Board must consider whether the event is of local or national significance. 4.4 Guidance from the Scottish Government on this matter has been published and has been appended to this report. 4.5 Having further considered the terms of the Scottish Government Guidance and of Section 67 of the 2005 Act the Clerk to the Board is of the view that it would be an overreach to conclude that either Option 1 - a general extension for all matches, or Option 2 a general extension within the terms of the Board’s current policy on Licensed Hours could be justified on the basis of a National or International event where Scotland is not participating in the games. It is therefore his strong preference that, other than the extension agreed at the last Board, any extensions proceed in line with Option 3 (Recommendations 2.1(iii) above). 4.6 In order to alleviate any impact on the wider community relating to a decision to extend licensed hours, the following conditions are recommended: - • All Premises wishing to take advantage of extended hours must notify Page 12
Page 13
the Licensing Team in writing in advance of the specific matches they wish to remain open for. • For any games which have a start time of later than 1am, a curfew for entry of 1am should be in force. • For any games which have a kick-off time later than 1am, a booking system should be employed. Such a system can be either via an advance ticket or an advance electronic booking. • That access to the premises for Children and Young Persons ceases at the end of ‘normal licensed hours’. • There shall be no entertainment such as, but not limited to DJ sets, Live Music or Karaoke to be evident in premises outwith ‘normal’ licensed hours. • The term ‘normal licensed hours’ refers to the terminal hour for the sale of alcohol under the terms of the licence prior to any extension of hours as a result of this policy. • Premises are advised to carry out a risk assessment to determine if SIA Licensed Stewards will be necessary to uphold the Licensing Objectives at times when any extension of hours is in effect. • 4.7 The following advisory control measures are also recommended: - • Premises are reminded that outdoor areas and outdoor drinking may only take place in line with the terms of the existing licence and should not be operated after 10pm. • That Premises give notification to neighbours in advance of the event(s) all the hours they intend to operate. • That consideration be given to temporarily amend the commencement hour of on-sales licensed premises on days where the premises intends to operate extended hours. • That consideration be given to staff welfare and safety in relation to longer opening hours and later closing times. 5 Financial and Procurement Implications 5.1 There are no financial or procurement implications relating to this report. 6. Risk Analysis 6.1 There is no risk to the Board associated with the contents of this report. 7. Equalities Impact Assessment (EIA) 7.1 There are no equality impacts through consideration of this report. (EIA Screening ref 1498). 8. Consultation Page 13

27. Extended Hours Applications Special Events 27.1 The Licensing Board considers activities such as dances, discos and dinner dances, wedding receptions and parties where a disco or band is provided generally falls within the description of a special event or occasion to be catered for on the premises. Darts, dominos or pool competitions, karaoke evenings, parlour derbies or private parties where there is no significant entertainment are generally not considered to fall within the definition and there would be a presumption against granting any Extended Hours Applications in respect of such events. National and International Events and Festivals 27.2 The Licensing Board believes that in many cases such events can be appropriately accommodated within normal licensing hours and should not routinely be regarded as a need for extended licensing hours. The Licensing Board however, recognises that both St Patrick’s and St Andrews days are significant cultural events and authority is granted to the Clerk on those dates to grant extended hours applications for an extension of one hour to normal licensed hours in respect of specific ticketed events. The Licensing Board further allows for a one-off extension to normal licensed hours for an event related to the celebration of Halloween, and grants delegated authority to the Clerk to authorise the grant of one such application per premises. Any decision on an extension of normal licensing hours will only be taken after careful consideration of the particular event and may require increased control measures to be put in place aimed at preventing/limiting problems. Should the need for a special event arise at short notice the Licensing Board will endeavour to hold a Special Meeting to enable the application to be considered. Page 15

Hours 27.3 Other than during the festive period as defined within Section 26, or in relation to recognised events in the previous paragraph of this policy, the Licensing Board considers that it would be difficult for any application to justify the sale of alcohol earlier than 11 a.m. or after 3 a.m. other than in exceptional circumstances. Conditions 27.4 When granting an extended hours application, the Licensing Board may where it considers necessary or expedient for the purposes of any of the licensing objectives vary the conditions of the premises licence (all in accordance with section 70A of the Act). The variation of such conditions is delegated to the Clerk to the licensing Board. Page 16

LICENSING (SCOTLAND) ACT 2005 (THE ACT) - STATUTORY GUIDANCE (UNDER SECTION 142) IN RELATION TO EXTENSION OF LICENSED HOURS – POSSIBLE SG APPROACH TO WORLD CUP 2026 Context Under section 142 of the Act, the Scottish Ministers may issue guidance to Licensing Boards (boards) as to the exercise of their functions under the Act. Section 142 of the Act requires boards to have regard to the guidance. Any guidance does not seek to instruct boards exactly how to make the Act work. It is intended to assist boards as they carry out their responsibilities under the Act. In the current version of the guidance issued in January 2023, general extensions of licensing hours is covered as follows: 9.25 The licensed hours for occasional licences require to be set out in the application for the licence and incorporated into the licence if granted. Section 67 of the 2005 Act provides Licensing Boards with a power to grant general extensions to licensed hours in connection with special events of local or national significance. However, licensed premises are not obliged to remain open for the period of any such extension. Section 68 of the 2005 Act which makes provision for extended hours applications does not apply to occasional licences. As work was done to develop updated guidance which ultimately became the guidance published in 2023, more expansive wording was considered based on the previous guidance. For reasons of brevity, this was not included in the 2023 guidance but it is helpful to include it here for ease of reference: Licensed Hours Licensing Boards should recognise that events of local or national significance will arise from time to time which could not have been anticipated when the operating plan was prepared. Such events can give rise to the need to vary the licensed hours of large numbers of premises licences. In these circumstances, there are two ways in which hours may be extended, either on application by individual licence holders or a general extension across the licensing area. Extensions of licensed hours Where a licensed premises wishes to provide for an event, sections 68 to 70 enable Licensing Boards to process an extended hours application from the licence holder where there is no provision for the extended hours in the operating plan. The application must relate to a special event or occasion to be catered for on the premises, for example a wedding. An extended hours application can also be made in connection with a special event of local or national significance. Page 17
Page 18
The chief constable and Licensing Standards Officer must be notified by the Licensing Board when the Board receives an extended hours application. Within 10 days of the receipt of that notice the Licensing Standards Officer must prepare and submit a report setting out the officer’s comments on the application to the Licensing Board The chief constable may, within 10 days of receipt of the notice, object to the application if the chief constable considers it necessary to do so for the purposes of any of the licensing objectives. There is provision in the legislation to deal with an application in a shorter period. If the Board is satisfied that the application requires to be dealt with quickly they can require that the deadline for the submission of any report from the Licensing Standards Officer and any notice of objection from the chief constable, must be submitted to the Board earlier than the usual 10 days from notification of the application. For instance, they could require any report or objection to be submitted within 5 days of the notification of the application. However, the Board cannot require these to be sent less than 24 hours from notification of the application. When the response period is reduced, the Licensing Standard Officer’s duty to submit a report on the application becomes optional. This expedited process can accommodate applications where it is not possible to make the application within the usual statutory timescales. The Licensing Board will have complete discretion as to whether to grant the application taking into account any police objections and Licensing Standards Officer’s comments and having regard to the licensing objectives. Licensing Board’s power to grant general extensions of licensed hours Section 67 of the Act provides a power for Licensing Boards to grant general extensions to licensed hours in connection with special events of local or national significance if they consider it appropriate to do so. The Act refers to a Licensing Board making a ‘determination’ to that effect. A determination can apply to – • the whole of the Licensing Board's area or only to specified parts, • licensed hours generally or only to specified descriptions of those hours, and • all licensed premises in the Licensing Board's area or only to specified descriptions of such premises. Even if granted, such a determination does not require any licensed premises to be open for the sale of alcohol during any or all of the period of extension hours specified. The determination will have effect for such a period as the Licensing Board specifies. It is a matter for Licensing Boards to decide on how they further publicise the granting of a general extension of hours. At a minimum the Licensing Board may wish to post details on its website. However the Licensing Board is under Page 18
Page 19
a statutory duty to notify the chief constable and the appropriate licence holders to whom the determination applies. Possible SG approach There are calls for the Scottish Government to help ensure as consistent an approach as possible is taken for general grants of extended hours across Scotland. While the licensing system is decentralised so that local communities are those that influence decisions through boards, the Act does envisage a role for Scottish Ministers to assist boards in how they carry out functions under the Act. While not written into section 142 itself, where an issue is of national relevance then it may be considered there may be more merit in Scottish Ministers offering their views through guidance than may be appropriate for more local based issues. This tension between local decision-making and national consistency is a long- standing issue for how licensing operates. However, this specific issue; namely a national issue (Scotland reaching the World Cup for the first time this century) and how the people of Scotland can come together to enjoy the games seems appropriate for Scottish Ministers to help assist boards across the country in how they carry out their functions under the Act including whether to grant a general extension within their area. Section 67 provides for the following: In terms of what the Scottish Ministers could do under section 142 guidance powers, the following is suggested as a possible way to approach it. Page 19
Page 20
Draft Section 142 guidance Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 – board powers to determine a general extension of hours – Scotland’s Men Team qualification for the World Cup 2026 Introduction This guidance is supplementary guidance and relates to the operation of section 67 of the Act. It relates to consideration of relevant issues to help facilitate a licensing board being able to determine general extensions to licensed hours for Scotland Men’s team group games in World Cup 2026. Scotland play three games in their group: Sunday 14 June 2026: Scotland vs Haiti – kick off time 0200 Friday 19 June 2026: Scotland vs Morocco – kick off time 2300 Wednesday 24 June 2026: Scotland vs. Brazil – kick off time 2300 Each of these games will likely finish beyond licensed hours for many, if not all, licensed premises within an area. While some nightclubs may likely not be affected depending on their licensed hours, pubs – which tend to have earlier closing times – likely will be. The issue arises due to UK kick off times for each of Scotland’s games being times that may lead to an issue with licensed premises usual opening hours. In particular, the game on Sunday 14 June is not expected to finish until approximately 0415-0430 (exact time dependent on a number of variables including additional time added by the referee etc.). However, the two others games will also not likely finish until 0115- 0130 which will also create issues in terms of many licensed premises usual opening hours. The following information is intended to assist with boards in approaching consideration of determinations to grant extension of hours to on-sales of alcohol within board areas. Historic achievement of national significance The qualification of the Scotland Men’s team to the World Cup represents the first time this century that the team has qualified. This is a magnificent achievement by the team that people across Scotland are very proud of and it is the first time under the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 where consideration can be given to determining extension of licensed hours for the on-sale of alcohol in the context of Scotland being involved in the World Cup. Section 67 of the Act provides a power for Licensing Boards to grant general extensions to licensed hours in connection with special events of local or national significance if they consider it appropriate to do so. Scotland qualifying for the World Cup clearly represents an event with national significance. Page 20
Page 21
The Scottish Ministers are clear that the people of Scotland should be given as much opportunity as possible to watch Scotland play including in places where they can come together with fellow fans to enjoy the games. Extension of hours - powers in section 67 of the Act and suggested other considerations The Act refers to a Licensing Board making a ‘determination’ to grant general extensions to licensed hours. A determination can apply to – • the whole of the Licensing Board's area or only to specified parts, • licensed hours generally or only to specified descriptions of those hours, and • all licensed premises in the Licensing Board's area or only to specified descriptions of such premises. The Scottish Parliament approved these powers to be contained within the Act so that they were ready to be considered for use as needed for special events of local or national significance as they occur. The Scottish Ministers would expect each licensing board to consider whether to extend hours. The decision in each board area is a matter for the board, but given the national significance of the Scotland team’s achievement, we would guide boards to consider use of the powers in section 67 as a matter of course. It should be noted that where an extension of hours is granted, such a determination does not require any licensed premises to be open for the sale of alcohol during any or all of the period of extension hours specified. The effect of granting an extension means that individual premises can make their own decision whether to remain open, but that if they wish to do then they do not require to make their own individual request for extended hours. This flexibility of approach would give greater freedom to licensed premises to make their own decision on opening while reducing the bureaucratic burden falling on business (by avoiding the need to apply for extended hours). It is a matter for Licensing Boards to decide on how they further publicise the granting of a general extension of hours. At a minimum the Licensing Board may wish to post details on its website. Licensing Boards are under a statutory duty to notify the chief constable and the appropriate licence holders to whom the determination applies. In addition, we would guide boards to consider other interests to notify in consideration of an extension of hours including XXX and YYY. Separate to notification once a determination has been made, we would guide boards to consider what engagement they should undertake prior to making a decision on a determination. Although section 67 does not require such engagement, it is considered appropriate to do with, as a suggested minimum, the chief constable Page 21

THE LICENSING (SCOTLAND) ACT 2005 Application for Variation to Premises Licence REPRESENTATION Ref: WDLBPREM/0205 Name and Address of Premises: The Tullie Inn, Balloch Road, Balloch G83 8SW. Applicant/Licence Holder: Hill Brown Licensing on behalf of Stonegate Pub Company Ltd. Type of Premises: On & Off Sales. Proposed Application: To make changes to Operating Plan: Variation of the information contained in 5(f) of the Operating Plan to add the following: Recorded and live music to be played in the outdoor area. Layout Plan is updated to show that all activities take place throughout the premises. Police Authority Comments: Representation. Licensing Standards Comments: On a separate report. Fire Authority Comments: No comment. Regulatory Services Comments: Building Standards no comment. Environmental Health responded: Environmental Health would recommend against allowing any amplified sound / music or tv coverage in an outdoor seating area as per the Licensing Board policy Appendix 1 Part D. As much as we appreciate the benefits and enjoyment of an outdoor seating area this has to be balanced against the amenity of the nearby residential properties. Amplified music or sports coverage would add considerably to the ITEM 7 Page 79
Page 80
overall noise level in the outdoor area with the corresponding effect of patrons having to ‘talk over’ the background noise, thus increasing the overall noise further. Community Council Comments: no comments received. Health Board Comments: no comments received. Access Panel: no comments received. Additional Comments: Planning is National Park and not WDC – no objection. Section 50 Certificates: Not required. Decision: Page 80

Subject: Objection to Variation Application – Lomond Sports Bar & Kitchen, 127 College Street, Dumbarton Dear Clerk, I wish to lodge a formal objection to the variation application submitted by Lomond Sports Bar & Kitchen, 127 College Street, Dumbarton. This objection is submitted on behalf of local residents who have raised significant and ongoing concerns regarding the current operation of the premises. These concerns relate directly to the Licensing Objectives, particularly: • Preventing Public Nuisance • Preventing Crime and Disorder • Securing Public Safety • Protecting and Improving Public Health Grounds for Objection 1. Ongoing noise disturbance and public nuisance Residents living directly above and adjacent to the premises report persistent noise issues, including extremely loud amplified music and DJ sets causing vibration through the building. These disturbances occur late into the evening and have resulted in multiple complaints to Police Scotland and Environmental Health. 2. Reports of disorder and anti-social behaviour Residents have reported fights occurring outside the premises, as well as groups congregating at the entrance late at night. These incidents have required police attendance on several occasions. 3. Reports of drug-taking activity There are worrying reports of drug use occurring in the vicinity of the entrance to the premises. This raises serious concerns regarding public safety and crime prevention. 4. Unsuitability of the premises for expanded capacity or outdoor drinking The building is a listed structure with residential properties directly above. The introduction of an outdoor drinking area, extended hours, and increased capacity (including televised sport outwith core hours) would significantly worsen the existing issues and is incompatible with the location. 5. Failure to maintain the building and engage constructively with residents Residents have advised that the owners have refused to contribute to essential communal repairs approved by the property factor. This raises concerns about responsible stewardship of the premises. Request for Licensing Board Action Given the above, I respectfully request that the Board: • Refuse the variation application in full, including outdoor drinking, increased capacity, and extended activities. Page 125
Page 126
• Undertake careful monitoring of the premises’ current operation, including liaison with Police Scotland and Environmental Health. • Consider whether a review of the existing licence is required, given the volume and seriousness of complaints. The current issues demonstrate that the premises are already struggling to operate within the Licensing Objectives. Any extension of activities or capacity would exacerbate the problems experienced by residents. Kind regards, Councillor David McBride West Dunbartonshire Council Page 126

Objection 4 - Received by email – The Lomond Sports Bar and Kitchen Dear Sir/ Madam , I wish to make an objection to application for variation of premises licence. I currently live above these premises and am already having to deal with noise pollution and rowdy behaviour outside .Having bought my flat above a family run local bar /lounge many years ago I accept there will b some noise but not to the extent at present it is now a Live music venue at weekends where my flat vibrates with the noise levels. This being a listed building I don't believe can be soundproofed accordingly! I want to be able to open my windows without smoke and noise arising from a seated area directly beneath me.

Planning Consultee response <DC26/021/LIC> Application for Variation of Premises Licence Lomond Sports Bar and Kitchen - 127 College Street, Dumbarton G82 1NH THE LICENSING (SCOTLAND) ACT, 2005 & TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING (SCOTLAND) ACT 1997 Reference Number: DC26/021/LIC Proposal: Application for variation of premises licence Location: 127 College Street, Dumbarton, G82 1NH Applicant: HBR(Dumbarton) Ltd Thank you for your consultation request received on 1st April 2026 for the application for variation of premises licence referenced above. The planning service is submitting a holding objection on the for three reasons: 1. The applicant is proposing a change of use from a Class 3 restaurant to a sports bar (suis generis) (retrospective) which is a material change in operation raising possible amenity concerns and will require to be assessed through a planning application. Currently the applicant is in breach of planning control. 2. Unauthorised works has been carried out to a Category C Listed building without consent and the applicant will require to submit a Listed Building Consent application to be assessed. Please note that works carried out without Listed Building Consent is a criminal offence. 3. The applicant has carried out works to the building including installing new signage which will require to be assessed through an application for advertisement consent. In regard to this, the planning service have met previously with the applicants agent in a meeting onsite dated Wednesday 18th March 2026. It was highlighted all the development and works carried out would have to be regularised through a new planning application, listed building consent and advertisement consent. However, since then there has been no response from the agent or applicant and we can only assume they are still preparing the applications for submission. As it stands, the planning issues have not been addressed and the unauthorised works and use of a sports bar does not have planning permission, listed building consent and advertisement consent. In light of the above, the planning service object to the granting of application for variation of premises licence until such times the planning position is properly regularised. I trust this clarifies our position. Kind Regards, Planning and Building Standards West Dunbartonshire Council 16 Church Street Dumbarton G82 1QL Page 135

The applicant must be the licence holder. 3. Please describe in detail the event for which the extension is required and all activities that will take place as part of the event. Note in paragraph 1 above that the event must be a special one to be catered for on the premises or one of local or national significance. 4. Insert the extended hours sought. Your operating plan will detail the core hours during which the premises will be open anyway. Insert here the hours required over and above those core hours e.g. a premises normally opens between 11am and 11pm but wishes to host a wedding with a bar until 1am on a Saturday. Insert here against Saturday a commencement time of 11pm and a terminal hour of 1am. 5. Insert the inclusive dates during which the extension is required.

Detail here the arrangements proposed for children. You may have child provisions within the operating plan but they may not cover the period of the extended hours.

Regulatory 16 Church Street DUMBARTON G82 1QL Our Ref: WDLBPREM/0xxx Your Ref: Date: 22 April 2026 E-Mail Address: peter.clyde@west-dunbarton.gov.uk The Clerk West Dunbartonshire Licensing Board c/o West Dunbartonshire Council 16 Church Street Dumbarton G82 1QL Dear Sir, LICENSING (SCOTLAND) ACT 2005 (“the 2005 Act”): SECTION 36 PREMISES LICENCE REVIEW APPLICATION PREMISES: WDLBPREM/0301 Café Roma 23 Britannia Way Clydebank G81 2RZ. PREMISES LICENCE HOLDER: Bulent Armut & Umran Ulusik trading as Café Roma (A Partnership). In terms of section 36 of the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005, as a Licensing Standards Officer, I hereby make application to the Licensing Board for a review of the premises licence in respect of the premises known as Café Roma 23 Britannia Way Clydebank G81 2RZ. I make this application in terms of Section 36(3)(a) that one or more of the conditions to which the premises licence is subject have been breached and that the notice issued pursuant to this breach has not been complied with; namely; Para 10 of Schedule 3 to the 2005 Act – Payment of Annual or Recurring Fees – the licence holder has failed to pay the annual fee for 2025-2026 By way of background, this condition requires the holder of a premises licence (whether it be in effect or suspended) to make payment of an annual fee to the Licensing Board. For these particular premises the annual fee is £280.00. The 2005 Act requires that the annual fee be paid to the Licensing Board before the 1 October each year. The Premises Licence holder was notified of the need to pay the annual fee by letter on the 28 August 2025. On 25 October 2025 a reminder letter was sent to both the Premises Licence Holder and to the premises marked for the attention of the Designated Premises Manager (DPM). This letter detailed that the annual fee had not been paid by the due date and encouraged the Licence Holder/DPM to make contact with the Licensing Team to rectify this matter. No contact was forthcoming. ITEM 10 Page 149
Page 150
Given that the annual fee for 2025-2026 had not been paid, and that no contact had been made with the Licensing Office, a compliance notice was issued on 25 March 2026 under Section 14 of the Licensing Act. This notice was sent to the registered office of the licence holder and copied to the premises. The notice specified that the annual fee should be paid no later than the 1 February 2026. This notice has not been complied with. Section 14 of the Licensing Act states that if a compliance notice is not complied with, the Officer should make a premises licence review application in respect of the licence. This is the basis for the application to review this licence. I therefore request that the Licensing Board consider the aforementioned grounds for review and take such steps as it consider necessary or appropriate for the purposes of the Licensing Objectives under the terms of Section 39(2) of the Act. Yours faithfully, Peter Clyde Licensing Standards Officer Page 150
