On the 3rd 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. Could we please have a copy of the section 80
abatement Notice that was served, and also any police officers details that attended to serve
the said notice?
Council Licensing officers also visited the site with Police and a warning letter was issued
regarding unlicensed entertainment, could we also have a copy of the warning letter that was
