In 1590, the right of the Chamberlain to levy local taxes on goods sold within the city was upheld in The Chamberlain of London’s Case as a valid regulatory measure. Today the office is largely ceremonial, administering the creation of Freemen of London and collecting fixed penalties for vehicular parking offences. More information on the Wikipedia page [1]
