Southwark's statement of licensing policy 2021-2026
Southwark Council's licensing policy is currently being applied to premises licence applications for local venues.
Southwark Council's Licensing Sub-Committee considered premises licence applications for Dorothy's at the St George's Tavern and Tito's Latin Club in August 2026. These discussions involve applying the council's statement of licensing policy, which outlines how it carries out licensing functions and provides guidance on appropriate operating hours for different types of premises.
Previously, in August 2025, the Licensing Sub-Committee discussed an application from a Londis store in East Dulwich. The store sought a premises licence to sell alcohol and provide late-night refreshment until 1am, demonstrating how the policy guides decisions on specific operating hours for businesses.
