Noise from licensed premises is a common cause of
complaint by neighbouring occupiers, especially during the warmer
weather.
If you are being affected by noise from licensed
premises, we have the power under the Environmental Protection Act
1990, to take action to abate and prevent a 'statutory noise
nuisance'.
In addition all licensed premises must comply with the licensing
objectives of the Licensing Act 2003, which includes prevention of
public nuisance. If you are experiencing problems of noise from a
pub or a club, please contact the
Environmental
Protection team.
