Response
All local authority statistics for fly tipping that has been submitted can be found at the following website:
https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/env24-fly-tipping-incidents-and-actions-taken-in-england
This site will allow access to the data that is current. Any dates that you have asked for that are not included in this website is unavailable at this time.
Guildford Borough council does not hold date on the accumulated number of flytips at any one location. We have introduced a JET (Joint Enforcement Team) who picks up the remit for fly tip enforcement and we currently have no prosecutions to date, although we are waiting on dates for two pending cases.
