Require people be offered a chance to resolve environmental offence before FPN

I believe that some local authorities are using powers to impose fixed penalty notices (FPNs) for environmental offences inappropriately, and that offenders should be given an opportunity to correct their action before an FPN can be imposed.

I believe that environmental enforcement officers can make people feel alarmed, stressed and harassed for relatively minor environmental offences, such as discarding a cigarette butt.

I believe that before an FPN can be issued, the wrongdoer should be given the opportunity to correct their infringement, before a fixed penalty can be imposed.
