East Kilbride's MSP has backed new government measures which will see fly-tipping fines more than doubled to prevent littering and support Scotland’s circular and zero waste economy.
The new measures, which will hit offenders in the pocket to the tune of £500, have been brought in under the Scottish Government's six-year National Litter and Fly-tipping Strategy.
It sets out how national and local government, business, third sector, communities and individuals can work together to drive behaviour change, improve infrastructure and strengthen enforcement.
