North Yorkshire County Council Trading Standards service provides advice for businesses throughout North Yorkshire and is responsible for the enforcement of a variety of legislation covering the safety, descriptions and pricing of products and services.
The service works in the following specialist teams:
- Business compliance (incl. food and animal health)
- Consumer services
- Enforcement, intelligence and prosecution process
- Fraud and financial investigations
They rely on the thousands of consumers who make complaints about traders or their products & services to them via Consumer Direct each year. They also work with community groups and others to protect the interests of consumers and residents, for example by setting up 'No Cold Calling Zones'.
They provide an email 'newsflash' service for businesses who receive emails notifying them of the latest scams aimed at businesses together with updates concerning new legislation relevant to your trade sector.
