answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/05/2023 answer text <p>On 27 March, the Government published its Anti-social Behaviour (ASB) Action Plan. The ASB Action Plan commits to tackling ASB across five key themes: stronger punishment, making communities safer, building local pride, prevention and early intervention, improving data, reporting and accountability for action.</p><p>This plan is backed by £160m of funding. This includes up to £60m to fund an increased police and other uniformed presence to clamp down on anti-social behaviour, targeting hotspots.

This will start in 10 initial trailblazer police force areas and be rolled out nationally in 2024.</p><p>The plan includes up to £2m to supercharge use of High Street Rental Auctions which will allow local authorities to sell off the rental rights for empty properties to willing tenants, with financial support to make sure that areas which need this the most are not priced out by prohibitive refurbishment costs to bring the properties up to standard.</p><p>We are providing up to £2.5 million to pilot High Street Accelerators in up to 10 areas which will incentivise and empower local people to work together to develop ambitious plans to tackle vacancy and reinvent their high streets so that they are fit for the future.</p><p>Humberside police force has recruited 365 additional uplift police officers against a total three-year allocation of 322 officers, as at 31 March 2023.</p><p>Humberside’s funding will be up to £231.7m in 2023/24, an increase of up to £7.9m when compared to 2022/23.</p> answering member constituency Croydon South answering member printed Chris Philp question first answered 25/05/2023 16:51:42 answering member 4503 label Biography information for Chris Philp
