Does the hon. Gentleman agree that case law is absolutely clear? The situation that he describes is a person operating outside the legal scope of a pedlars certificate. A notice from Dorset police makes it clear:"““If you do not move around between sales or if you set up a pitch or stall you will be liable to prosecution and seizure of your goods.””"
That is what should have happened in the case to which the hon. Gentleman referred, and penalties should have followed.
