One of Keep Northern Ireland Beautiful's primary aims is to enable the public and private sector agencies to deliver more effectively on Local Environmental Quality (LEQ), and relate it to the needs of their community. Much of their work is pertinent to Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment (NI) Act 2011, The Litter (NI) Order 1994 and The Waste and Contaminated Land (NI) Order 1997 with more recently added amendments.[clarification needed]
They aim to achieve their objectives by:
- enabling others to improve, maintain and own their local environment
- encouraging the proper disposal and recycling of material, which could become litter
- deterring gum deposition
- deterring graffiti, fly posting, vandalism, dog fouling, anti-social behaviour and other activities that have a negative impact of the quality of our local environment
As part of this work, they help local authorities and other agencies to deliver better local environmental services, which are tailored to meet the differing needs of the communities that they serve.[tone]
