The consultation is seeking views on four pieces of legislation, policy responsibility for which falls across both departments, with a view to ensuring relevant authorities have effective and proportionate powers to help address ASB and its effects within our communities. The proposals relate to:
- Anti-Social Behaviour Orders (ASBOs);
- Drinking in Public;
- Injunctions Against Anti-Social Behaviour; and
- Absolute Grounds for Possession.
The purpose of this consultation is to seek the views of stakeholders on the proposed amendments to ensure that powers available to relevant authorities (Councils, Police and Social Housing providers) are proportionate, effective and will have an appropriate impact on addressing ASB and its effects within our communities.
We would welcome your comments on these proposals.
