Recommendation 45

45

Illegal high street trading requires a complex multi-agency approach with unclear leadership and reporting.

Conclusion
The disruption of illegal trading on the high street requires a complex multi- agency approach, combining neighbourhood policing, Trading Standards, Immigration Enforcement, and specialist financial investigation. As a result, businesses remain unclear as to who leads on this issue and where they should report their concerns. (Conclusion, Paragraph 165)
