The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her Department (a) is taking and (b) plans to take to help tackle anti-social behaviour in York Outer constituency.

Answered by Dame Diana Johnson

Tackling anti-social behaviour is a top priority for this Government, and a key part of our Safer Streets Mission.

​We will put thousands of new neighbourhood police and community support officers into local communities, and provide residents with a named officer they can turn to when things go wrong.

​We will also crack down on those causing havoc on our high streets by introducing tougher powers via a Crime and Policing Bill, including a new Respect Order to tackle repeat offending.
