Reducing litter: penalties for environmental offences

We want to know what you think about whether to increase the on-the-spot fines for littering, graffiti and fly-posting in England. We are also proposing new fines for the owners of vehicles from which litter has been thrown.

We are seeking views from:

• any authority which has enforcement powers on littering, including local councils, National Park Authorities, the Broads Authority, England parish or community councils
• Local Government Association
• vehicle-hire companies and taxi companies
• environmental non-governmental organisations and charities
• the public
