Ceist:41 Mr. Clohessy asked the Minister for the Environment the number of fines imposed in 1996 under the Litter Act, 1982, on a local authority basis; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9756/97]
Vol. 477 No. 5
41 Mr. Clohessy asked the Minister for the Environment the number of fines imposed in 1996 under the Litter Act, 1982, on a local authority basis; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9756/97]
52 Mr. S. Brennan asked the Minister for the Environment the number of on-the-spot fines issued under the litter laws to date in 1997; and the number issued in 1996. [9744/97]
55 Mr. Haughey asked the Minister for the Environment the number of full-time and part-time litter wardens employed by local authorities on 1 January 1996 and 1 January 1997. [9754/97]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 41, 52 and 55 together.
Details of on-the-spot fines issued by local authorities in 1996, the latest year for which information is available, are set out in a tabular statement which I propose to circulate in the Official Report.
The most recent information available to my Department indicates there were 21 full-time and 66 part-time litter wardens employed by local authorities during 1996. Information regarding 1997 is not yet available.
