We think car boot sales and markets are a major reason for tool theft from vans. Many tradespeople have their van broken into and have their tools stolen, which can deprive them of their livelihood. Replacing tools is not cheap, and we want the Government to take action to tackle tool theft.
The Government responsed to this petition on 17th April 2024 (View Full Response)Found: Completely ban the sale of used power tools at car boot sales and markets.

Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what steps his Department is taking to support local markets.
Answered by Jacob Young - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities)
The Government is fully committed to supporting the businesses and communities that make our high streets and town centres successful. Markets can make a significant contribution to the vibrancy and diversity of our high streets and town centres.
It is for local authorities, not central Government, to make decisions on running, supporting and investing in local markets in their areas.
