Question
To ask the Scottish Government what progress it is making towards the introduction of its National Litter and Flytipping Strategy.
Answer
The Scottish Government consulted on proposals for a new draft National Litter and Flytipping Strategy in early 2022.
Following publication of a consultation analysis report in July 2022, the Scottish Government has been working in partnership with Zero Waste Scotland, Scottish Environment Protection Agency, Keep Scotland Beautiful and other stakeholders to finalise the strategy and initial action plan.
We will be publishing the National Litter & Flytipping Strategy in the coming months. This will set how we plan to work with partners to develop more effective litter and flytipping prevention and enforcement measures.
