Breakdown of scrap metal licence applications in 2025
Request received: 07 November 2025
I would like to make a Freedom of Information (FOI) request for the following data:
• How many scrap metal dealer sites currently have a site licence in your area/council/authority?
• How many scrap metal collectors (mobile) currently have a site licence in your area/council/authority?
• When did you last share these data with the Environment Agency to enable them to add them to the Register?
In addition, under the same FOI, I would be grateful if you could tell me:
• How much were your licences (site and collector each) in 2025?
• How much do you intend to charge (respectively) in 2026?
• How many visits to scrap metal sites have your officers undertaken in 2025?
