uin	68221
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/11/2021 answer text <p>The Government is absolutely committed to tackling and preventing anti-social behaviour (ASB). We know the serious impact that ASB has on both individuals and communities.</p><p>We provided the police, local authorities and other local agencies with a range of tools and powers that they can use to respond quickly and effectively to all forms of ASB through the <em>Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014</em>. These powers are deliberately local in nature, and it is for local agencies to determine whether their use is appropriate in the specific circumstances of each individual case.</p><p>In January of this year, the Home Office updated <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/956143/ASB_Statutory_Guidance.pdf" target="_blank">statutory guidance</a> to support local agencies to make effective use of these powers and in July the <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1015382/Crime-plan-v10.pdf" target="_blank">Beating Crime Plan</a> laid out the Government’s plan for tackling crime and ASB. This included a commitment to working with local agencies and partners to drive down ASB using the full range of powers and tools in the ‘2014 Act’.</p><p>In addition, the Home Office’s Safer Streets Fund has allocated over £70m to support areas that are disproportionately affected by acquisitive crime. Many of the crime prevention measures supported by the fund, such as improved streetlighting and CCTV, are helping to tackle ASB.</p> answering member constituency Redditch answering member printed Rachel Maclean question first answered 09/11/2021 17:15:06 answering member 4668 label Biography information for Rachel Maclean

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/06/2021 answer text <p>The grotesque antisemitic scenes to which my Rt Hon Friend refers were utterly chilling and disgraceful. And this sort of behaviour will not be tolerated.</p><p>The police must take the toughest possible action against any form of antisemitism. Jewish people must feel safe.</p><p>Everyone has freedom of speech and the right to protest peacefully. That does not include the right to be racist, to harass anyone, or to incite hatred or violence. Moreover, holding Jewish people collectively responsible for the actions – real or imagined - of the Israeli state is antisemitic. Anyone who engages in antisemitic behaviour must feel the full force of the law.</p> answering member constituency Witham answering member printed Priti Patel question first answered 07/06/2021 16:03:48 answering member 4066 label Biography information for Priti Patel
