Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act
The Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 is a law designed to address activities that harm community quality of life, such as vandalism, harassment, or public disturbances. It gives police and local authorities new powers to quickly respond and manage anti-social behavior through tools like dispersal orders, injunctions, and criminal behaviour orders. The act aims to prevent nuisance, protect victims, and foster safer communities by providing clear measures to tackle persistent problems while balancing individual rights and community safety.
