HOW pleased I was to read that Bury Council had instituted its first fine in the litter louts battle (First fine in litter louts battle, Bury Times, June 17).
Such delight was tempered by your article in the same paper about the balloon quiz at Castlebrook High School when 180 balloons, with attached papers, were thrown into the sky to land as litter. Surely it is the aim is to encourage people
not to throw litter.
I hope that your pictorial record of persons committing the offence can be utilised by the environmental health department to issue
further fines.
