'St Helens Council has questions to answer'
ST HELENS Council has some questions to answer after it was revealed that household recycling had been dumped into general waste following a backlog that resulted in some residents not having a collection since before Christmas.
The council website is clear that £100 fixed penalty notices are in place if waste is “deposited or fly tipped without due care”.
Perhaps affected residents should have the right to fine the council the same amount per household for failing to provide a service that was promised?
