Environmental Protection officer
Tower Hamlets Council's Environmental Protection team is currently objecting to a late licence bid over noise and nuisance concerns.
In October 2026, Tower Hamlets Council's Environmental Protection team objected to Morley's Brick Lane's application to extend its late-night refreshment hours. The team raised concerns about potential noise and nuisance, as the fast-food outlet sought to remain open until 1am on Sundays to Thursdays and 3am on Fridays and Saturdays, significantly later than its current licence allows.
The Environmental Protection team, which includes Environmental Protection officers, assesses environmental concerns such as noise and nuisance. This role involves monitoring and enforcing environmental health regulations, ensuring compliance with licensing conditions to protect residents from potential disturbances.
