Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what recent assessment she has made of the adequacy of charge rates for anti-social behaviour in Aldershot constituency.

Tackling anti-social behaviour is a top priority for this Government, and a key part of our Safer Streets Mission to take back our streets.

We will put thousands of Neighbourhood Police and Community Support Officers into local communities so that residents have a named officer they and crack down on those causing havoc on our high streets by introducing tougher powers including new Respect Orders to tackle repeat offending.

The Home Office collects and publishes information on the number of notifiable offences recorded by the police in England and Wales, and their investigative outcomes but it is not currently possible to separately identify those which involve anti-social behaviour.
