Treforest Pub Banned From Selling Alcohol

July 8, 2008 Next Page »

A Treforest pub has had a series of hard-hitting measures imposed upon it – and been banned from selling alcohol for a month – in a bid to reduce the negative impact it has on the community.

South Wales Police applied to Rhondda Cynon Taf Council’s Licensing Committee for a review of the license of the Forest Hotel because of ongoing concerns about the premises from residents and partner agencies.

After considering evidence of underage drinking, associated crime and disorder, violence and disturbance relating to the use of the pub’s outside spaces, members agreed with the concerns of the partner agencies and issued strict enforcement measures on the licensee.

These include banning of sale of alcohol for a month in a bid to break the cycle of behaviour associated with the pub, to enable the licensee to concentrate on fulfilling other enforcement measures and to make necessary alterations.
