Under Section 89 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990, the Highways Agency are responsible for the clearance of litter on the M11. Responsibility for litter clearance on the All, A14 and A10 falls to the relevant district councils along those routes.

Mr. Paice

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions how many applications were made under section 91 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 for the issue of litter abatement orders in(a) Cambridgeshire, (b) the Eastern Region and (c) England in the last year for which figures are available; and how many orders were made in each case.

These figures have not been collected centrally. However, the Tidy Britain Group will be requesting information on applications for litter abatement orders and the number that are issued when they carry out their local authority enforcement survey later this year.
