Public nuisance As to public nuisance, the Court
of Appeal noted the observations
of Lords Justices Schiemann and Keene in the «instructive» Zain case (Nottingham City Council v. Zain [2001] EWCA Civ 1248) where Schiemann LJ had considered it to be ``... within the proper sphere
of a local authority's activities to try and put an end to all public nuisances in its
area provided always that it considers that it is expedient for the promotion or protection
of the interests
of the
inhabitants of its
area to do so in a
particular case».
