That the revised proposed ASB Policy and accompanying Procedure for delivery in the Borough be approved.

A report was submitted to Cabinet seeking approval for the adoption of a revised Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) Policy and Procedure for the Borough Council following amendments made.

The Portfolio Holder for Community Safety and Wellbeing informed the Cabinet that the Policy was reviewed every two years as good practice and it reflected updates in terminology. The Policy now referred to community triggers and complaints not to be investigated as key updates.

Councillor Waring stated that the Council had a really dedicated Partnerships team and a really clear Policy and Procedure and that the department was acting diligently. The Council now had an up to date Policy.

Councillor Sweeney endorsed all that had been said adding that the Council had an excellent Partnerships team. The Policy would tackle dog fouling, litter and ASB which were key issues particularly for elderly and vulnerable residents.

The Leader and Councillor Johnson endorsed everything that had been said.

Resolved:     That the revised proposed ASB Policy and accompanying

Procedure for delivery in the Borough be approved.
