Ban the sale of second-hand power tools online & at car boot sales

We believe tool theft is very common and not enough is being done to prevent thieves profiting from stolen tools. We urge the Government to ban the sale of second-hand power tools to reduce thieves benefiting and profiting. We believe this could reduce the number of vehicles broken into.
