Manchester City Council Bill [Lords](By Order)

I thank the hon. Gentleman for being generous with his time, but I do not understand one aspect of what he says about rude or aggressive people or people who sell illegal things. The Bill will not stop that. Those people will simply continue their trade and run away even faster when the police or trading standards officers come to get them. That has been proved in London and elsewhere, where the problem has continued. My hon. Friend the Member for Canterbury (Mr. Brazier) said, I think—I may be taking words out of his mouth—that 200 traders come to his constituency from overseas, mainly from Poland and so on.
