Former Hull restaurant fined nearly £3,000

A former Hull restaurant has been fined £2,720 for failing to manage waste properly.

Tiffin Box in Princes Avenue was prosecuted for offences relating to the management of waste, including the failure to provide adequate provision for the collection of waste, and a lack of legal documentation in regards to the collection and disposal of wastes.

Councillor Anita Harrison, portfolio holder for waste management at Hull City Council, said: “By taking a tough stance on enforcement we can deter any potential offenders, and we encourage members of the public not to shrink from reporting any perpetrators they see. We will prosecute, and when convicted we will name and shame in the hope that we can stamp out this anti-social behaviour.”

The outlet was prosecuted under Section 34(5) Environmental Protection Act 1990, Section 34(1)(b) Environmental Protection Act 1990 and Section 47(6) Environmental Protection Act 1990.
