Local Government Act 1974

Miscellaneous powers - Markets and weighing machines

652: Council may provide market places

You could also call this:

"Councils can set up markets where people can buy and sell things."

Illustration for Local Government Act 1974

The council can provide market places for you to buy and sell things. You can think of a market place as an area where people gather to trade goods. The council has the power to create these areas.

A law called the Local Government Act 2002 changed this rule, and it is no longer in effect as of 1 July 2003. This change was made by section 266 of the Local Government Act 2002, which you can find on the legislation website. This means the council can no longer provide market places under this specific rule.
