London Local Authorities Bill [Lords]
That might be the situation. They seem just to have gone for level 3 fines, which are a maximum of £1,000, but there is no explanation for choosing that penalty, so I cannot answer my hon. Friend's point, I am afraid. The provision on the obstruction of authorised officers goes far too far, giving rise to the creation of an inappropriate criminal penalty.
