Portlaoise has slipped in its yearly rankings for littering.
It's up to the local authority in Laois to make sure littering is controlled at shopping centres.
That's the message from Irish Business Against Litter, as Portlaoise has slipped in its yearly rankings.
It now sits at 39th place, in comparison to Athlone moving up to 24th and Mullingar remaining in their top 15 cleanest cities and towns.
