The Council, in its capacity as Licensing Authority, is required to consider applications for Scrap Metal Sites & Collectors. There is currently no policy in force covering the Council area for these activities and it is considered necessary and appropriate for such a policy to be prepared, consulted upon and published in order to ensure that applications for this type of authorisation are considered and determined in a fair, consistent and transparent manner.
