The markets shall be open for trading during the prescribed times, details of which shall be clearly displayed at the Market office (see Appendix 6). Where permitted by the Market Management, stalls may open before, but no later than, the prescribed opening time.
All Traders shall keep their allocated Stall open for the sale of goods during the hours of opening (see Appendix 6). Traders persistently opening Stalls late or closing Stalls early, without prior permission from Market Management, may receive a warning letter and be liable for any associated costs (see Appendix 7).
The Council may from time to time designate additional days as either Full Market or Perimeter Market trading days and on such days any Permanent Traders who chose to open are expected to be trading in accordance with these regulations. The extra days will be charged as a normal day (regardless of hours traded by any individual trader) and cash payment will be collected by Market Management on the day.
The Council reserves the right to amend the market trading days, the opening hours, to alter the layout of any market or to close and stop the sales from any Stall at any time with or without notice, without being liable for any loss sustained by the Trader, directly or indirectly, if in its opinion it is in the best interest of the market in the circumstances
