I am aware some Local Authorities have expressed frustration at the apparent leniency of recent convictions. In particular, they have raised concerns the sentences have not adequately reflected the cost of investigating and remediating the incident. Whilst environmental policies are a devolved matter, sentencing and the operation of the court system are reserved matters. I have, therefore, written to Rebecca Pow MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary at the Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra) to raise this issue.
