Council byelaws
The London Borough of Barnet, like other councils, has wide powers to make byelaws in relation to a range of areas under its control. Generally, byelaws seek to uphold good order, government and public health.
Byelaws created by the council must be sealed and then confirmed by a higher power as valid before they are enforceable. After this, byelaws are given the weight of law and are generally enforceable by the council. Persons who contravene an enforceable byelaw may be subject to a penalty or a fine.
