Pedlars' fears over law change
There are an estimated 4,000 so-called pedlars, or street salesmen and women, working in England and Wales.
It's a trade that dates back centuries, but the way they operate could be about to change.
The Government says the current law needs to be brought into line with the rest of Europe and wants to alter the way traders can work.
It claims this will help street sellers, but many disagree.
