MOTION NO. 3

MOTION: Councillor L. Dunne

This Area Committee calls on the Chief Executive to replicate plastic pollution signage initiatives that are seen across the Country "Please take away 3 pieces of plastic every time you visit the Park/Woods/Mountains".  Initially, to start in our two main parks, Tymon & Watergate.  

REPORT:

Under the Litter Pollution Act, it is a requirement for each local authority to review its Litter Management Plan at least once every three years, the current SDCC Litter Management plan covers the period up to the end of 2019.  A review of the plan has been initiated and it is anticipated that this will be brought to the Environment, Public Realm and Climate Change Strategic Policy Committee (SPC) for discussion in November.

It is proposed that this suggestion will be considered by the SPC as part of the 2020 - 2024 Litter Management Plan.
