Havering Licensing Authority
Havering Licensing Authority continues to object to extended operating hours for venues, with recent decisions made by the council's Licensing Sub-Committee.
Havering Licensing Authority objected to Romford nightclub Jukebox's application for extended operating hours in September 2026. The Licensing Sub-Committee of Havering Council, however, granted the variation on September 17, 2026, allowing the venue to operate until 4am on Fridays and Saturdays, despite concerns also raised by the Metropolitan Police.
This follows a similar objection by the Authority in July 2025 regarding Geturkish LTD's application for a new premises licence to operate a Romford takeaway until 2am daily. The Metropolitan Police and Environmental Health also raised concerns about this application, which was discussed by a Havering Council Licensing Sub-Committee.
