Earlier this week, Harrogate Borough Council was allocated £57,951 as part of government attempts to enforce coronavirus restrictions.
The government has awarded £60 million to councils and police forces across the country.
North Yorkshire’s Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner has been allocated £291,987 as part of the deal.
Councils are expected to use the money for compliance and enforcement, such as recruiting covid marshals, carrying out inspections, issuing fines and closing premises in the case of non-compliance.
Although covid marshals will not have any enforcement powers, government guidance says they should “engage, explain and encourage best practice and national covid secure guidance”.
