Joint Waste Enforcement Service Procurement
Main contract details
Harrow, Hounslow and Ealing councils have joined together to deliver a more efficient service, widening the scope of environmental enforcement activity, sharing of overhead costs, expertise and allowing greater flexibility.
This contract is for the provision of Enforcement Services by way of the issue of fixed penalty notices in respect of a range of environmental and highways related enforcement legislation including but not limited to the:
• Environmental Protection Act 1990;
• Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005;
• Dogs (Fouling of Land) Act 1990 and 1996;
• Anti-Social Behaviour Act 2003;
• Refuse Disposal (Amenity) Act 1978 and 1987
• Anti-social behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014;
• Highways Act 1980
• London Local Authorities and Transport for London Act 2003
• Town and Country Planning Act 1990
• In 2016/17, over 20,000 fixed penalties were issued for littering and fly tipping across the participating borough areas.
In the latest iteration of the contract the activity rate has risen to between 600 and 800 fixed penalty notices paid per month.
The proposed competitive procedure with negotiation procurement will involve a contractual structure which will allow other Councils and public bodies to join the joint arrangement.
The Councils are keen to include some important, but peripheral activities, in the scope of the procurement including security and traffic direction. For these activities there will be a reimbursement mechanism per hour or per day as appropriate.
The Councils have clear requirements for how vulnerable adults would be treated and in particular fixed penalty notices should not be served on minors.
