Additional documents: Minutes: The Legal Services Manager briefed all present on the procedure for the meeting and advised the Sub-Committee that an application had been submitted by Mr M Coelho to vary the premises licence in respect of The Square, 3 Cross Inn Buildings, Wind Street, Ammanford to allow:
