A late night levy for businesses serving alcohol in the early hours would raise around £58,000 per year to be spent on tackling related crime and disorder.

Bolton Council wants to introduce charges to 55 businesses across the borough that have a licence to serve alcohol between 3am and 6am.

The levy, set by the government, is based on the rateable value of the business properties and for this year would be between £5.75 and £28.72 a week for businesses in Bolton.

The council said the potential revenue would be around £58,200 per year. The money would be used to deal with crime and anti-social behaviour, as well as clean-up work.
