Dog Fouling

Requested Thu 14 March 2024
Responded Wed 10 April 2024

Please can you tell me how many Fixed Penalty Notices (FPNs) you have issued to dog owners for dogs fouling since 2015 until the present day? Can you please provide the annual figures for each year and show how many fines were paid?

Response

By calendar year:

2015 - 18 FPNs - £525

2016 - 9 FPNs - £800

2017 - 4 FPNs - £150

2018 - 4 FPNs - £200

2019 - 4 FPNs - £300

2020 - 3 FPNs - £200

In 2020 the Dog PSPO lapsed and was not reinstated until November 2023 so no further dog foul FPNs were issued.
