Operator fined for illegal club operation
*****************************************
The courts heard that in September last year, officers from the Office of the Licensing Authority (OLA) of the Home Affairs Department conducted an inspection at a club on Foo Ming Street in Causeway Bay, which had been operating with a certificate of compliance (CoC).
The OLA officers found that the club had a layout that deviated from the registered drawing. Condition 3 of the CoC was breached. The man, being the operator of the club, was charged with contravening section 21(1) (a) of the Ordinance.
A spokesman for the department reminded all CoC holders to comply with the conditions as stipulated therein. Enforcement action will continue to be taken against illegal club operation.
