The Government are committed to dealing with the serious and growing problem of fly-tipping.
The Anti-social Behaviour Bill, currently before Parliament, includes measures that will help the Environment Agency and local authorities to trace and prosecute those responsible for fly-tipping.
The Government are also considering other measures, details of which will be published later in 2003 and brought forward at the next legislative opportunity.
