As it's an offence under this law not to have a licence then surely it's down to the police to check them out and prosecute. Probably means it'll never happen.
Don't think councillors would have any authority at all.

Thank you for the info, I also do not think a councillor has any authority to enforce anything the council is responsible for like licensing or litter/dog fines etc
