I've already had a go at my MP (Jackie Smith) she forarded my concerns to Kim Howells, and the feedback I received indicated that we were to get something along the same lines as the Scottish legislation. However, the information above does not look encouraging. How many pubs willw ant to bother? Many will probably prefer to get rid of spontanious music rather than face additional hassel. It anoys me no end - TV, juke boxes and the like are so much louder yet require nothing like the legislation.
