Clause 5 - Remedial notices
High Hedges Bill
11:00 am
Mr John Taylor (Solihull, Conservative)
The Bill later provides that after a remedial notice has been served and if the owner of the property does not comply, penalties can be imposed, ultimately on a daily basis. In the final analysis, the local authority can trim the hedge and deliver the bill to the offending party. Remedies of last resort are available and they become more severe, as they should.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 5 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
