1. Please find the information requested here. 

2. Not held. We do not record volume/weights of fly tipped materials as they are lifted within normal collection routes. Information that is not held falls under Section 17 of the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 - Information not held.

3. We will lift all fly tipping materials located on Council owned land and litter pick the area.

4. Not held. We currently uplift fly tipping within our normal collection vehicles when they are in the area so we do not have separate costings for fly tipping. Information that is not held falls under Section 17 of the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 - Information not held.
