The Sub-Committee was asked to consider an application for a variation of the premises licence for the premise known ‘Aldi Stores’, 257 – 263 Holdenhurst Road, Bournemouth, BH8 8NT. Variation was made to extend the permitted hours of opening and for the supply of alcohol off the premises Monday to Sunday 06:00 to 00:00 hours.
