Proceeding contribution from Tony Lloyd (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 April 2009. It occurred during Legislative debate on Manchester City Council Bill [Lords] and Bournemouth Borough Council Bill [Lords].


Manchester City Council Bill [Lords] and Bournemouth Borough Council Bill [Lords]

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman. I shall be brief, as I do not want to encourage long speeches. Will he confirm that what he said is not absolutely accurate, in that to obtain a pedlar's licence a person does not have to go to the local police force in the area where he or she intends to peddle? The licence can be obtained from any force, even though its officers know nothing about the area where the purported trade might take place.
