Cumulative Impact Assessment consultation deadline extended

We are consulting on our draft Cumulative Impact Assessment (CIA), and we want you to have your say.

The council has been consulting on its CIA and has received some excellent and constructive feedback on the CIA so far. To make sure that everyone who wants to can submit their views on the CIA, the council is extending the consultation deadline to the 12th November.

Cumulative impact is the term used to describe the effect of having a number of licensed premises which sell alcohol, provide late-night hot food or hot drinks or where a range of sporting, music or performance events take place in a concentrated area and which can have an impact on crime and disorder, nuisance and the demand on local services. We are committed to working with our communities, business and our stakeholders to get their views on Westminster’s Cumulative impact assessment (CIA), in order to help us shape the vision for Westminster’s first Evening and Night-time Plan (Westminster After Dark) . The CIA's consultation will be considered within the broader context of engagement and discussions as we develop part of the comprehensive plan for the future of our evening and night-time environment, prior to making any policy or strategy decisions. The CIA plays a crucial role in providing evidential groundwork for our Licensing Policy.
