If you are talking about enforcement, and I was on a local authority for 20 years in the past, it is one of the weak elements of local authorities. Ms Piner was deemed to be operating illegally since the 2019 legislation. I was coming in here saying the 10,000 figure in towns needs to be looked at but actually, the 2019 legislation is probably causing as many problems for individuals and people as any legislation that would be brought before us now.
