The three-councillor strong licensing subcommittee will hear submissions from both the council’s trading standards team, and the licensing officer of Wiltshire Police. The officer seized 2036 litres of beer and 159.75 litres of wine from the shop. The submission added: “The duty loss of beer is estimated at £2667.16 for the beer and £736.45 for the wine. The force’s licensing officer John Barker says: “The selling and storage of illicit tobacco and/or alcohol for financial gain is clearly an extremely serious criminal offence.
