| Many local councils set different penalty levels and offer early payment discounts to distinguish between real fly-tipping and simple household mistakes. Neighbouring Hammersmith & Fulham provides a clear and balanced model: • £1,000 FPN (reduced to £500 if paid within 10 days) – reserved for true fly-tipping, such as mattresses, white goods, bulky items or construction waste. • £250 FPN (reduced to £200) – used where normal domestic waste is put out incorrectly (e.g., a single bag or small household item left out at the wrong time). This approach ensures enforcement targets actual fly-tippers and does not unfairly pressure residents. Hounslow has taken a stricter approach than nearby councils by issuing the full £1,000 fine with no early payment option, even for small, one-time mistakes. This falls short of government expectations and raises questions about fairness and whether enforcement is mainly about collecting money. Cllr Peter Thompson |
