ILLEGAL merchandise has been seized
from outside a Jess Glynne concert at ACC Liverpool at the weekend. City
Council licensing officers and Merseyside Police carried out an operation
which saw about £600 worth of t-shirts, and other goods taken from unlicensed
traders.
A vendor will be summonsed for street trading offences and a court order sought
to dispose of the goods. Councillor Frank Hont, cabinet member, said:- "The seizure of these items
sends out a message to unlicensed traders that their activities will not be
tolerated.
They hit at legitimate traders and people who buy from them should be aware that
there are no guarantees about the quality of the goods and their rights are not
protected." Click on
