Summary
Councils are to be given powers to stop betting and vape shops taking over their high streets under new plans announced by Andy Burnham . A No 10 source said the government was determined to crack down on vape and betting shops because they were two of the most visible signs of decline on high streets, and local people were genuinely concerned. The measures form part of a wider £30million crackdown on organised criminal networks operating through high street premises, including raids, forced closures and the seizure of illicit cash linked to money laundering, tax evasion and illegal employment.
Furthermore, Adult Gaming Centres, which provide adult-only access to slot and fruit machines, will face the same planning obligations, with the proposals expected to take effect at the beginning of next year. Angela Rayner said the move addressed problems that had built up over decades. “That’s why we’re giving local leaders the power to say no to what doesn’t belong on their high street, and the tools to fix it themselves,” the communities secretary said.
