Just read this and noted in particular the chance to submit comments by twitter !http://www.ciwm-journal.co.uk/archives/9026 The Communities and Local Government Committee (CLG) has launched an enquiry into littering and fly-tipping, claiming that despite campaigns aimed at changing the public’s behavior, litter has failed to be substantially reduced.The Committee will particularly welcome any evidence from local authority scrutiny committees. The deadline for the enquiry is Thursday, 16 October 2014.CLG is also calling for photographs to be submitted that illustrate problems with litter and fly-tipping – and also “before and after” photographs where areas have been successfully cleaned.It’s asking people to tweet photographs to @commonsclg, using the hashtag #litterpix

Imo, there aren't any excuses for placing(throwing) one's shop rubbish onto the pavements and/or gutters. Its a disgusting and thoughtless thing to do - the fines should be greater imo.
