In your area nothing.

The consultation should be out Jan/Feb/March next year, with a % announced in October. :wink:

If the proportions are to be announced in October 2011, that gives the trade in restricted predominantly saloon HC LAs plenty of time to change to WAVs so as to dilute the impact of proportions.

What's the betting that little or nowt will be done by the saloon HC proprietors in those areas between now & October 2011 to try to dilute the impact?

Nothing will be done until Oct 2011.

But a lead in time of up to 18 months will be allowed, IMO, and that's when those areas effected should act, and quickly.

But will they? TBH I don't give a f***. :-$
