Call for Travellers to pay deposit on illicit campsites - Scotland

From the Evening Express

CALLS were today made for Travellers to pay a deposit on illicit camps in the North-east.


The cash would be used to pay for the clear-up if any mess was left behind.

Ellon community councillors asked about the possibility of forcing Traveller groups to pay money on sites up front, which may encourage them to make sure they clean up after themselves.

Under the proposals, Travellers would get the money back if land is left in good condition.

The move came after residents complained about an unauthorised site at Balmacassie in Ellon.
