</a>ensuring the police, local authorities and other relevant agencies have the tools
they need to tackle anti-social behaviour.</p><p>The plan is backed by £160m of funding.
This includes funding an increased police and other uniformed presence to clamp down
on anti-social behaviour, targeting hotspots. In 2023/24 this covered ten police force
areas, including South Wales. That initiative is being rolled out across England and
Wales with total funding of £66m will be allocated to support a hotspot approach.</p><p>We
are also strengthening police and local authority powers to tackle anti-social behaviour
through a number of measures in the Criminal Justice Bill.</p>
