Mr Speaker
I would have called the hon. Member for Norwich South (Simon Wright) if he had been standing, but he is not so I will not.
Andrew Bridgen (North West Leicestershire) (Con)
Will the Minister update the House on how early morning alcohol restriction orders and the levy for late night licence holders are working to contribute to the costs of policing antisocial behaviour?
Norman Baker
I am very pleased by the roll-out of the late night levy, including in Newcastle, Cheltenham and elsewhere. I believe that Islington is next, and Chelmsford is showing an interest as well. We are looking at the responses from local councils on early morning restriction orders to see what feedback we have received, and we will amend the measures as necessary.
