The government is currently reviewing fixed penalty notice limits for fly-tipping and household waste duty of care offences.

A spokesperson said funding had been given to Fly-tipping Action Wales to provide 150 cameras so local authorities can target hotspots and help clean up communities.

Grants have also been awarded to Denbighshire, Flintshire, Neath Port Talbot and Pembrokeshire councils for enforcement and camera-based projects.

Huw Irranca-Davies, Deputy First Minister with responsibility for climate change, said: “There is never any excuse for fly tipping. It blights our streets, countryside and communities, and people the length and breadth of the country are rightly angry about it.

“We are determined to clean up our communities and these new cameras will help us do just that.”
