A Christchurch-based company has had its application for a liquor licence to operate a bottle store in Timaru declined. The application from Gulati Brothers Enterprises Ltd, which was heard by the Timaru District Council District Licensing Committee on Monday, hoped to establish bottle store at 155b Hilton Highway, near trampoline business Flip Out Timaru in the town’s industrial hub at Washdyke. In its decision released on Friday, the committee, which consisted of former TImaru District councillor Dave Jack, and councillors Peter Burt and Gavin Oliver, declined the application.

(File photo) The Employment Relations Authority released its decision in the case between the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment and Nekita Enterprises, Harjit Singh and Shereeen Vandana Singh in December 2020. The decision references evidence given by Gulati. “Kunal Gulati gave evidence to the effect that he started paying employees under the dual payment system of his own accord and that Mr Singh was not aware of the system. “However, Kunal’s oral evidence was not very credible in terms of explaining how he came to operate the scheme and how he operated it once he started paying cash to employees.
