Contribution

Secondly, have the Government considered establishing a hotline for traders to report transgressions to help boost compliance? Finally, how will the enforcement regime be funded and will it be at risk in financially strained local authorities? It could be that the £200 or more fines imposed are destined to go to local authorities as recompense for their work in this area. I congratulate the Minister on bringing forward this SI. It has a vital role to play not only in the health of our young people but in reducing unnecessary, unsightly and dangerous waste.
