HC Deb 23 February 1927 vol 202 c1731
Mr. HARRIS

I beg to present a Petition on the subject of street trading in London, which is signed by 64,250 persons. It is the petition of the Federation of Costermongers and Street Traders' Unions. The London County Council (General Powers) Bill, introduced into the House of Commons, proposes to prohibit street trading except under licence regulations; and the petitioners pray that this Honourable House will give instructions that such proposal shall not be put into force, or shall be delayed until after consultation with the London County Council and the Federation of Costermongers' and Street Traders' Unions.
