Paul Bristow MP "Disposal of Waste (advertising & penalty provision)"

Yesterday was a momentous occasion - we had the privilege of accompanying Paul Bristow MP of Peterborough at the House of Commons Chamber, where he delivered a crucial 10 Minute Bill addressing the issue of fly-tipping.

The bill, titled “Disposal of Waste (advertising & penalty provision),” aims to confront the growing problem of fly-tipping head-on, introducing measures to mitigate its prevalence and hold perpetrators accountable.

To be recognised in Parliament for our contributions to the fight against fly-tipping, alongside Paul Bristow was an honour.

Fly-tipping has become a pressing concern in all communities, including Paul’s area in Peterborough, and its detrimental effects on the environment, public health, and community.

From unsightly piles of rubbish blighting our landscapes to the potential hazards posed by hazardous waste, the consequences of fly-tipping are far-reaching and demand urgent action.

Working closely with Paul Bristow MP has been both an honour and a privilege. His dedication to serving his constituents and addressing pertinent issues such as fly-tipping is commendable.

Together, we have collaborated to draft legislation to address the root causes of fly-tipping and establish robust mechanisms for enforcement and deterrence. The scourge of fly-tipping is far from over but - this marks a significant step forward in our collective efforts to build cleaner, safer, and more sustainable communities for generations to come.
