Contact your litter warden. You'll get their info from the County Council (or equivalent) website. I've done this in the past for dumping incidents I've witnessed, albeit it was more than a banana skin, but I know that they follow up on cigarettes thrown out of windows.
£30 fine over here in England if you are caught dropping a cigarette butt in the street.
Is that the state's problem? - Or should it not be up to all the dog owners in the area to sort this out?- and there are no bins to bin the business!!!
Well Ireland usually copies the UK anyway. So hopefully it will stop the littering (a bit) over here.Fines are enforced over here, though not as much as they will be in future we are told. Legislation is relatively new here.
Yes i think a fine is an obvious way to stop littering, but will that money be used to clear up the butts or chewing gum on the streets? Or will it be used to lengthen our lovely politicians' holidays/salaries?The fine was recently increased to €125, but I've never seen anyone stopped for dropping a cigarette butt, even when it was done right in front of a gard. If they want to make it meaningful, have the offenders spend a Saturday picking up cigarette butts.
