<p>We published the Litter Strategy for England in April 2017, setting out our aim
to clean up the country and deliver a substantial reduction in litter and littering
within a generation.</p><p>We have launched the Litter Innovation Fund to support
councils and communities in the development and evaluation of innovative approaches
to tackling litter. From April 2018, we have also increased the maximum fixed penalty
for littering and given councils in England new powers to tackle littering from vehicles.</p><p>The
first annual report on our progress delivering the actions set out in the Litter Strategy
