Havering Conservatives are urging the town hall to consider the impact of new regulations on small shopping parades, fearing restrictions on fast-food outlets could drive them out of business. At a recent council meeting, Conservative councillor Jason Frost expressed that poor implementation of policies could harm local economies. Meanwhile, Labour councillor Jane Keane pointed out that many families rely on affordable food options out of necessity. The debate continues amid concerns of childhood obesity and the need for healthier food availability without compromising local businesses.
Conservative councillor Jason Frost warned that excessive restrictions on fast-food outlets might lead to the disappearance of small parades of shops in Havering.
Labour councillor Jane Keane highlighted that for some families, cheap food is essential, stating it could be the only meal children access at home.
