Proceeding contribution from Greg Knight (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Canterbury City Council Bill.


Canterbury City Council Bill [Lords] (By Order)

If this provision were as described by my hon. Friend the Member for Canterbury, many of us could support it, because we would all welcome a heritage site—Canterbury cathedral—being given special protection. However, clause 11 goes even wider than my hon. Friend the Member for Christchurch (Mr. Chope) suggests and would allow the council to ban touting in an"““off-street car park, recreation ground, garden or other park, pleasure ground or open space””," with no mention whatever of the cathedral.
