FOI request (FOIR-745528458)

Monthly FPN hand-outs by council 2022-current and enforcement officer usage

Requested Mon 01 September 2025
Responded Thu 16 October 2025

I would like to request some information from you under the Freedom of Information Act Data concerning the use of fixed penalty and penalty charge notices in your area.

I would like this information broken down by month from the latest available data stretching back to January 2022.

I would like the data laid out in a CSV and split up into the categories of FPNs (that is, the specific number of FPNs handed out for littering, fly-tipping, dog fouling, fly posting and graffiti).

I would also like to get the numbers of civil enforcement officers and ASB enforcement officers employed by the council for each month over the same period.

If the data exists, I would also like to know how many of these officers get assigned to street patrols per month.

Response

Please accept my apologies for the delay in responding.

Please see attached document containing Fixed Penalty Notices.

We currently have 6 wardens (Civil Enforcement Officers). Our wardens carry out a range of duties including many outside the scope of this FOI.

We do dot have any Anti Social Behaviour enforcement officers.

With regards to your question as to how many of these officers get assigned to street patrols per month, this information is not held.
