The scrutiny inquiry day at the Guildhall – aimed at reducing the gulls’ food source caused by litter and exposed waste – heard a range of views and ideas put forward for potential actions to tackle the gull menace.

These will now be considered in detail by the Panel and a report agreed in the New Year for presentation to the Council’s Cabinet.
