Report of the Port Health & Public Protection Director, Markets & Consumer Protection.

The Group noted an updated version of the report of the Port Health and Public Health Director which provided an update on the Trading Standards Service’s partnership work in dealing with economic crime, street trading, the late night levy, Safety Thirst and noise.

A Member referred to the need to consider the possible impact upon the need for taxi marshalling once the underground runs throughout the night. The need for a licence to undertake charitable street collections for money was mentioned although it was noted that no licence was required if charities were asking members of the public to sign up for future charitable giving.
