What the petition asks

To save All Councils Money in Cleaning up Fly Tipping, it makes sense to Make them have a License in the Window of their Vehicles, and make it Law for Properties Not to check on this before having Waste Removed, Both with a Very Large Fine if not Abided by.
Fly Tippers are not worried about Fines.
Today’s Fines are going way back and far too small, they need updating to Hurt the ones causing issues like Fly Tipping, Hit them hard in their Pockets where it Hurts.

Also if caught have their Lorries Crushed.

Councils can use the money spent on things Local for their Communities.

Many Fines are far too Low and been left in the Past, Bring them up to date, be a good idea to increase them each year to kept them up to date.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about fly tipping, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

We're not sure if you want the Government to introduce new licensing requirements for rubbish collection workers, or do something else.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
