Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment he has made of the effectiveness of the Community Trigger process in the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014.
Answered by Victoria Atkins - Shadow Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
We keep anti-social behaviour policy under review through a National Anti-social Behaviour Strategic Board which brings together a range of partners and representatives from key agencies, including the police, local government, and other Government departments, to consider the effectiveness of the powers introduced in the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014. We also published refreshed statutory guidance for frontline professionals on the use of these powers on 24 December 2017.
We are aware of the Victims’ Commissioner’s report on anti-social behaviour, published on 30 April, and which makes several recommendations, including on improvements to the Community Trigger process. We will carefully
consider the findings and recommendations in this report.
