General Enforcement Policy
One of our duties is to make sure that people and businesses meet statutory obligations and comply with the law on issues ranging from paying council tax, to litter, to the provision of safe food.
Our officers have law enforcement duties and can take action in the circumstances outlined in this draft General Enforcement Policy.
