Protection of the Environment Bill 2003: Second Stage (Resumed).
I welcome the amendments to the Litter Pollution Act 1997. The requirement for articles or advertisements exhibited in public places to include the name and address of persons on whose behalf they are exhibited is very important, as are the local authority by-laws regarding distribution of advertising material. The provision stating promoters of events have to take necessary steps regarding litter pollution is very important. Will the Minister comment on the obligations on businesses regarding public areas outside their premises?
