Dear sir/madam,

With reference to your FOI request below I respond as follows:

·         How many Fixed Penalty Notices has your council handed out in
2018 for the littering of cigarette butts?  – 63 Fixed Penalty Notice have
been issued for cigarette related material

·         How much is your FPN for littering cigarette butts? – Fixed
Penalty Notices are £75 if paid within the 14 day time limit; but if you
pay within 10 days, it’s a discounted price of £50. If you don’t pay
within the 14 days, it will go to criminal prosecution.

·         How many FPN’s have not been paid within the allocated time
frame, and subsequently gone to court for littering cigarette butts in
2018? – 12 Fixed Penalty Notices have gone to criminal prosecution due to
none payment.

If you are dissatisfied with this response, you may ask the Council to
conduct a review of this decision. To do this, please contact the Council
in writing (including by letter, fax or email), describe the original
request, explain your grounds for dissatisfaction, and include an address
for correspondence. You have 40 working days from receipt of this letter
