SINGLE ENFORCEMENT POLICY

Decision Maker: Cabinet

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

To agree the adoption of a Single Enforcement and Prosecution Policy for all relevant activities undertaken by Herefordshire Council.

 

Decision:

THAT:

A Single Enforcement and Prosecution Policy be adopted

 

Reasons for the decision:

To provide a single, overarching policy that sets out clear principles to both those within the organisation engaged in enforcement activities and to our customers and partners.

 

Alternative options considered:

Do not support the principle i.e. continue to operate at least five separate policies.  This would mean the systems remain more complex and less transparent than necessary.
