I do not believe so, not under law. It has to be the local authority that does it. The local authorities will now be empowered to come up with their own schemes, which are targeted on areas that are causing trouble such as litter black stops and areas where there is a problem. It has to be proportionate and fair. They cannot put a camera on every street corner. However, they will be able to design a scheme, put in cameras and collect evidence on people. I expect it will work.
