Responded  Wed 08 March 2023

I am interested in the total number of environmental enforcement Fixed Penalty Notices (FPNs) that have been issued by your council in 2020, 2021, and 2022.

Could this also be broken down by:

• The value of each penalty issued

• Whether each penalty was paid by the offender
