Torfaen County Borough Council has the following markets: Pontypool Indoor & Pontypool Outdoor markets

Here is the Council’s response to our Freedom of Information request:

Q: Do you allow stall holders at your markets to sell real fur? (including small items such as knitted hats with fur bobbles, or key rings with fur trims etc.

A:   if a trader was selling a fur product we would ask them to remove it from sale

However, we are unaware of any official policy documents or guidelines to enforce this.

Please urge the Council to adopt the official Fur Free Markets policy by contacting Gaynor Wakeling, Business Development & Markets Manager,  email: gaynor.wakeling@torfaen.gov.uk
