§ Mr. KidneyTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what representations he has received requesting the introduction of a licensing system for car boot sales. [13309]
§ Mr. CabornI have been asked to reply.
My Department has received seven letters making such a request since May 1997. We are currently considering whether further controls are required over temporary markets, such as car boot sales, which are currently permitted for up to 14 days in any calendar year under the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 1995.
