Canterbury City Council Bill

Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 14 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Canterbury City Council Bill.
I take the hon. Gentleman's point about localism being broadly a good thing, but under the measures a pedlar's certificate would entitle the holder to act under its authority anywhere in England, Wales or Northern Ireland. Given that the two Bills on which we are concentrating today differ from each other and from the other Bills that we will be considering later, it would be difficult for any pedlar who wished to use a certificate that he has obtained legitimately to do his work in different parts of the United Kingdom, because he would have to look through clauses such as those in the Bill to see what they could or could not do in each local area? Is not that a difficult thing to expect them to do?
