Trading Standards Enforcement Policy
Decision Maker: Environment Cabinet Member Meeting, Cabinet Member for Environment
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
To approve the proposed enforcement policy.
Decision:
(1) That the Cabinet Member for Environment approves the Trading Standards Service Enforcement Policy and agree to its implementation by all members of the team.
Reasons for the decision:
The proper implementation of the Policy will help ensure that Trading Standards assist in the achievement of the fair law enforcement across all regulatory services.
Alternative options considered:
1. Consideration was given to adopting the Corporate Policy in its entirety. However the document is an over arching framework document that reflects the breadth of the regulatory activity that is the responsibility of the Council and the sanctions available to it.
2. The production of a service policy that specifically links back to the overarching framework document is considered essential to reflect the different sanctions available and the types of activity performed.
