I thank our guests for appearing before the committee. The difficulty with asking questions in the later round is that the other members will have asked the good questions. The issue of enforcement was mentioned. I always think we should try to push responsibilities and resources to local authority level because there is a great deal of knowledge there. Could the local authorities play a role in the enforcement of this, whether in partnership or otherwise?
