"The Mayor of Alice Springs, Damien Ryan, says the new by-laws are what the community wants.
'Begging is an issue that is not very acceptable in the fact that people prey on other people, they prey on the elderly, they prey on visitors, they prey on families,' he said. 'I mean begging, or humbugging, is something that is not appreciated in the community. We don't have anyway to stamp that out, that's why this has been brought about.'
He rejected suggestions the by-laws were racist."
