APPENDIX I: UNDERTAKING FROM BOURNEMOUTH
BOROUGH COUNCIL
The Lord Harrison
House of Lords
London
SW1A 0PW
17 July 2007
Dear Lord Harrison
Bournemouth Borough Council Bill
I refer to the proceedings of the select committee
on the above Bill and in particular to your closing remarks at
the end of the second day.
In conformity with those remarks, I hereby undertake
on behalf of the Bournemouth Borough Council that they will give
particular attention to the training of officers who will be charged
with the enforcement of -
a) the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions)
Act 1982 as proposed to be altered by the Bournemouth Borough
Council and
b) the Bournemouth Borough Council Bill itself
so that genuine pedlars operating within the legislation
are not prevented from carrying on their trade. Such training
will ensure pedlars who decide to trade in any part of Bournemouth
by calling door to door will be able to do so unimpeded.
Yours sincerely
Michael Edwards
Head of Public Protection
Bournemouth Borough Council
