Proceeding contribution from Tobias Ellwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Manchester City Council Bill [Lords](By Order).
Manchester City Council Bill [Lords](By Order)
I do not follow that argument at all. We have to license street traders because of other laws. There are issues to do with insurance liability and so forth. If anyone has a stand that is permanent and not moving, as according to the 1871 Act, he needs to operate accordingly. I suggest my hon. Friend reads the 1982 Act, which requires street traders to pay for a licence. That licence costs in the region of between £25 and £30 a day, not £12.50 a year.
