I am writing to request information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 regarding incidents related to the enforcement of the Sunbeds (Regulation) Act 2010.

1. Specifically, I would like to request the following information for the period from the implementation of the Act in 2010 to the present date – broken down by year:
• The number of reported or recorded incidents where businesses allowed individuals under the age of 18 to use sunbeds.
• The type of business including, but not limited to, beauty salons, leisure centres, gyms, and hotels – if recorded.
• The location (town/city/village) of where the incidents took place – if recorded.
• The number and value of fines issued for breaches of the Act.
• Where available, the age and sex or gender of the affected individual(s).
Our Trading Standards have received no complaints.
