Where are the fly-tipping hotspots in our community?
Fly-tipping is a crime, and those who spoil our beautiful countryside should face the full force of the law.
Having lobbied Ministers regularly to ask for tougher penalties on fly-tipping, and having promised you I’d secure tougher punishments, I was relieved to see fines for fly-tipping rise from £400 to £1,000.
To effectively tackle fly-tipping we need to ensure our Councils know where the hotspots are so they are able to make sure that hotspots are properly monitored.
If you’ve seen evidence of fly-tipping in our communities across Rutland and Stamford.
I will raise local hotspots with our Councils, and together we can crackdown on this selfish crime.
