This is paragraph out of the link below.... Selby District Council made Kirkgate a traffic-free zone for the market under the 1847 Town Police Clauses Act, and it is understood the brewery is also challenging the legality of such an ancient act. are they I wonder just challenging just the part they need or all the 1847, who knows. http://www.thisisyork.co.uk/york/news/Y ...

OCAL4.html The 1847 act has many sections. Hackney Carriages are covered by sections 37 to 68. Any law can be challenged especially if it conflicts with other laws but this act is still on the statute and will remain so until repealed. Regards JD |

The paragraph from the report seems to be implying that the whole Act could be challenged, and that it's age could have some bearing on this. Neither seems likely. Parts of the old Act could be challenged on the grounds that in conflicts with newer law, or that in the legal hierarchy other laws automatically take precedence, such as European law or the Human Rights Act. |
