Proceeding contribution from Tobias Ellwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Bournemouth Borough Council Bill [Lords].


Bournemouth Borough Council Bill [Lords]

I think that common sense is something that we wandered away from some time ago. My hon. Friend has described a situation where a pedlar can, over any two-hour period, move a maximum distance of about 160 metres. How is that possibly going to be useful from a town centre perspective of controlling street traders and pedlars? This is getting daft.
