Angela Tanner, Head of Regulatory Services at Crawley Borough Council, said: "Environmental Health professionals have campaigned for increased controls over the more unscrupulous elements of the sunbed trade for a long time.

"It's an unregulated trade and it has caused increasing concern to us and all local authorities, particularly with the trend towards unstaffed salons and the ease with which young people seem to be able to get access to potentially lethal tanning equipment."
