Sex Establishments
Any premises within the Tendring District selling or supplying
goods of an adult nature may be required to be licensed by this
Council. All applications for this type of licence are submitted
for approval by the Council's Licensing [General Purposes]
Sub-Committee and the applicant(s) will be required to attend a
Sub-Committee meeting to speak in support of the application.
It will be expected that the necessary planning consents, etc.
will already be in place to permit the premises to be used for the
purpose and for the hours sought. Each application will be dealt
with on its own merits and the Sub-Committee will attach such
conditions as it thinks appropriate for the premises.
If you are unsure whether a licence is required contact the
Licensing Section for clarification.
