PEOPLE living in Torfaen are being asked for their opinions and ideas on tackling litter and fly-tipping, as the council develops the next stage of its strategy for dealing with the issues.
"Ensuring Torfaen is a cleaner and greener place to live, work and visit is a council priority," said a council spokesman.
"Although it would be unrealistic to expect a completely litter free borough, we want to significantly reduce the amount of litter in it.
