fines for fly-tipping, littering and graffiti, and over 80,000 hours of uniformed
patrols have been undertaken, targeting areas blighted by anti-social behaviour in
10 police force areas.</p><p>From 1st April we will be providing funding of £66m to
every police force in England and Wales to support a hotspot enforcement approach
for both anti-social behaviour and serious violence across England and Wales from
April onwards.</p><p>We are strengthening police and local authority powers to tackle
anti-social behaviour through a number of measures in the Criminal Justice Bill.</p>
