Jake Berry – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Jake Berry on 2014-03-25.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans she has to reform anti-social behaviour orders; and if she will make a statement.

Norman Baker

The Government’s reforms are contained in the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and
Policing Act 2014. The Act will introduce two new powers, a civil injunction
and the Criminal Behaviour Order, to replace Anti-Social Behaviour Orders.
Unlike Anti-Social Behaviour Orders, the new powers will not focus solely on
enforcement but can include positive requirements to ensure individuals address
the underlying causes of their behaviour.
