South Lanarkshire councillors approved a new five-year strategy to tackle litter and fly-tipping.
It was presented to elected members at today’s (August 31) Climate Change and Sustainability Committee meeting, and sets out how the council plans to develop a range of initiatives to prevent littering, dog fouling and fly-tipping.
The strategy builds on a range of existing initiatives as well as using a few national campaigns promoted by organisations such as Keep Scotland Beautiful and Zero Waste Scotland, whilst taking on board future guidance from the new National Litter and Fly-Tipping Strategy which is due for publication later this year.
