Manchester City Council Bill [Lords](By Order)

One of the definitions in the six Bills, which are all slightly different, is of ““perishable goods””. What happens if perishable goods are seized by one council, but another council has a different policy? The person concerned will sue the council that has seized the goods, because they will have a right to do so. Until we sort out that mess and a framework is put in statute, the difficulty will be people not understanding what they are meant to be doing and therefore having recourse against the council.
