Bye Laws

The Council may apply to the Secretary of State for permission to operate bye laws covering particular activities. These are effectively local laws to deal with local issues.

Failure to comply with bye laws is a criminal offence. In many cases any person contravening a bye law is liable on summary conviction to a fine of an amount not exceeding:

a) level 3 on the standard scale, or
b) such lower amount as is specified in the bye laws,

for each offence.
