| − | So it isn't anything new except that children must be accompanied by a member of the university even though we've now opened up to public (at DM discretion). With the mandatory conditions that the council have imposed on us, there is grounds to say that we should be banning admission to those under the age certification of the BBFC for that film but I believe our licence gives us the get-out of "where customers appear that they may be under the BBFC age recommendation for films" as discussed in an exec meeting before. |

All screenings are staffed, alcohol is not allowed inside the theatre and is confiscated if discovered.

Where queuing occurs for tickets or entry, queues will be managed by the Duty Manager and their to not become an obstruction or inconvenient for other users of the building.
The protection of children from harm:
Where customers appear that they may be under the BBFC age recommendation for films, they will be challenged for identification and not admitted if they are underage.
