If it is that you do have information and cannot give it to me can you please inform me of
            this, then if it would be easier I could put a section 35 DPA request for the information.

            The information that you requested is below

            On your original Freedom of Information request ref 375981, a search was made on the
            address you gave as Unit 3, 4 Horrisons Industrial Estate, Haymerle Road Se15 6SD for the
            dates 16­17 February 2013.  I can confirm that no records were recorded under that
            particular address.

             This request has requested 'Bianca Road' as a search criteria, and in addition to the 16­17
            February 2013, also gives new dates of 4­5 May 2013.

            All Calls (Service Requests) received 16­17 February 2013

            Our records show 3 service requests were received regarding noise from 'the street' Bianca
            Road on the 17th February 2013 at:

                  05:37hrs

                  07:50hrs

                  07:53hrs
            The first service request was received outside of our operational hours. With regards to the
            other two service requests, the officers rang the clients at 08:15hrs and 08:25hrs
            respectively. The first client informed the Officer that the music was no longer bothering
            them, however, the other client asked for the officers to visit.

            Two officers visited the client at 08:45hrs and assessed the level of noise received at the
            client's premises. No nuisance was witnessed, however, they advised the client to call back
            should the level rise. No further calls were received, and no Abatement Notice was served
            on that date.

            All Calls (Service Requests) received 4­5 May 2013

            According to our records no service requests were received regarding this premises on
            these dates.


            Noise Abatement Notice
            On 1 May 2013 the Noise & Nuisance Team received information regarding a potential rave
            which would allegedly be held on the night of the 4 May 2013.

            In response officers visited the site on 1 May 2013, and established that the 'old sausage
            factory' in Bianca Road was being squatted. Officers spoke to the squatters who were
            residing there, and whilst they did not substantiate the claim, they did not deny it either.
            Officers felt that should the rave go ahead it would likely cause a nuisance to nearby
            residents.

            In a proactive attempt to address this, on 3 May 2013 Officers served a section 80
            abatement Notice for 'likelihood of nuisance' which effectively prohibited the nuisance from
            occurring or recurring. Whilst the Notice prohibited the occurrence or recurrence of nuisance
            from the rave, it could not prevent the rave from taking place.

            In addition to the above, Council Licensing officers also visited the site with Police and a

                                                                 839
