The fly posters have to remove them within a fixed period after notification to avoid prosecution. Some of them even have the time and date on for the council to use as evidence.

OK, a brief explanation. Fly posting contravenes the Town & Country Planning Act. To enforce the act the Council must issue an enforcement notice. This stipulates the period within which the posters must be removed to avoid fines and/or prosecution. As a new tactic the council is affixing these snipes (strip posters) over the fly posters they have issued enforcement notices for. This makes advertisers nervous, as all their posters have a big 'cancelled' over them. The black text is a disclaimer to avoid the Council being prosecuted themselves, since the events have not actually been cancelled.

Cancelled Posters, by onemandown72 on May 20, 2008 12:23:00 GMT 1, Personally I think that is class - finally an intelligent come back from a council wanting to clean up street art. And don't get me wrong, I love street art, for the very reason that it can be dealt with in any way shape or form. And ultimately very few fly posters do actually improve the aesthetic of a wall that they are on.
