I move amendment No. 45a:
In page 21, subsection (1), line 2, after "£1,500" to insert "and such community service to eradicate litter as may be decided at the discretion of the court".
In reading this section, I felt that simply imposing a fine might improve the balance sheets for the local authority but may well not result in what the Bill is trying to do, which is to prevent litter in future. Would it be possible to include the option of community service? There is so much eradicating of litter to be done that it would be appropriate for an offender to be also part of the solution and thereby learn a lesson for the future.
