§ Mr. Lubbockasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government if he is satisfied that adequate powers to deal with the problem of litter exist and are being fully used; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MacCollThe powers are, broadly speaking, adequate. More use could be made of them in some places and the Department from time to time give general advice to local authorities on this. Legislation by itself cannot solve the problem. A great deal depends on educating the public.
