There was submitted a report dated 2 April 2003 by the Director of Legal & Support Services on an application for a street trader's licence by Christopher Kelly to allow him to operate a snack van at a site in the vicinity of Ocean Terminal, Patrick Street, Greenock.  The report advised that Mr Kelly's application had to be considered at the meeting due to the expiry of the six-month statutory period for determining such applications and suggested to the Panel that the six-month period be extended by application to the Sheriff to allow Mr Kelly and his Solicitor to consider the application fully.

Decided:  that application be made to the Sheriff to extend the six-month period by a further six months for determining the application.
