Rushcliffe tops new fly-tipping league table on councils’ action against environmental crime
New nationwide league tables show Rushcliffe Borough Council leading a regional list of local authorities taking the toughest action on fly-tipping.
The authority issued an average of 0.74 FPNs per incident, for a total of 755 FPNs in 2021/22, the top in the East Midlands.
The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) ratio was calculated for each local authority (LA) as the total number of FPNs issued divided by the total number of fly-tipping incidents and the statistics boost transparency, helping people across the country to understand how their LA deals with fly-tipping.
