Agenda item

Interim Director of Consumer Protection and Market Operations to be heard.

Officers reported that there had been little change since the report to the previous meeting of the Committee. Close monitoring of supply chains would continue as would the close dialogue with the Tenants Associations.  Officers advised that discussions about contingencies following Brexit had taken place and traders did not appear to be concerned about sourcing supplies.

The Chairman drew the Committee’s attention to a special Brexit Fund which has been established by the Finance Committee.  However, at this stage it was unclear whether the Markets Committee could access this funding.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
