Minutes:

The Group received a report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection updating Members on recent activities of the Public Protection Service.

 

The Director of Markets and Consumer Protection explained to the group that work is ongoing to deter illegal street sellers, with ice cream vans virtually eliminated from the Square Mile through persistent action, though nut sellers remain in some locations, as do map sellers on the Millennium Bridge.

 

It is also noted that within the report summary, the text should read “24/7” when referring to the Noise complaints service working hours.

 

[RESOLVED] – That the report be received.
