London Local Authorities and Transport for London (No. 2) Bill [Lords]

May I answer the intervention from the hon. Member for Ealing North (Stephen Pound)? The key issue is the fact that a penalty notice will have to have been served on the owner of the skip prior to the immobilisation device being placed on that skip. Quite how the immobilisation device will work I leave to the hon. Gentleman's imagination and to the ingenuity of London local authorities.
