Moves could outlaw risks to wildlife
Should the sale of sky lanterns be banned?
That’s the question being posed by the Office of Fair Trading which has launched a consultation to gauge public opinion.

OFT chiefs say the Island fire service has also expressed significant concerns over public safety.
The government consultation will run until July the third.
