We are delighted that the Association of Liberal Democrat Councillors has decided to take a stand against ‘fining for profit’.

Drawing on Manifesto Club work on the area, the ALDC has produced a Campaign pack and a Draft Council motion on the issue.

These are only available to its members, but the council motion can be viewed here.

If you are in an area where private enforcement companies operate on commission, you could contact Lib Dem councillors and ask if they will challenge these practices, pointing them towards these excellent ALDC resources.

(Of course, the council motion might be of interest to councillors from other parties too).
