This is the list of documents available for the submission Get Me Home Safely Campaign Council commends Unite Hospitality's Get Me Home Safely campaign for highlighting the issue of workers getting home safely from work late at night which arises particularly for women and particularly in the hospitality sector where shifts can end late. Council notes that Licensing Boards in other council areas, for example, East Dunbartonshire, have considered this issue in the context of licensing policy in relation to the grant of late night extensions of licensed hours. Council agrees to ask the Licensing Board to consider this issue in its forthcoming review of policy in relation to the issue of late night extensions and more generally in relation to the grant of licenses with operating hours that will create difficulties for staff getting home. Council also notes that the availability of public transport options at night is essential for both staff and customers getting home safely from late night venues and asks officers to explore with transport providers incentivising transport options at night particularly at the weekend to include night buses, demand responsive transport and the greater availability of taxis. Proposed by Councillor Kelly.
