Enforcement Policy

 

Purpose of the Report:

The report proposes a new enforcement policy (‘the policy’) for the council. It is intended to apply to almost all council services, therefore having a much wider scope than the various existing policies.

The policy sets out the general principles officers will apply to achieve compliance with the wide variety of legislation enforced. The policy also sets out instances where a firmer stance, including prosecution, may be considered more appropriate even in the first instance.

 

Executive will be asked to.

Adopt the policy in order to guide officers and ensure a consistent approach when enforcement activity is undertaken by the council.
