What the petition asks
Incidents of large scale illegal fly tipping are occurring far to frequently and the fly tips are almost on an industrial scale, especially in rural areas. It is obvious to all that organised criminals have become involved and are profiting from fly tipping.
There is no doubt that the crime of fly tipping is having a serious effect on the countryside, wildlife and communities - it can't be allowed to go on.
