Our Take On Asbo's
The ASBO or 'Anti-Social Behaviour Order' had been hailed as the solution to much of the inappropriate and anti-social behaviour in our communities today.
There is so much written on the ASBO procedure within so much detail, we are not going to try and outdo or reinvent the wheel. If you're looking for a step-by-step, in depth analysis of ASBO use from start to finish, this won't give you that either. If you're looking for an ASBO overview and some independent viewpoints, then this is for you.
We will though however, try and explain in clear and simple terms what an ASBO is and the basics of when an ASBO can be applied for. Hopefully this springboard will give you the basis of where to go next.
ASBO's can give you up to 5 years in prison or young offenders institute for young people or one big fine if they are broken. A person or community experiencing anti-social behaviour can ask their local authority to deal with the problem. It makes no difference if you are a local authority tenant or if you own your own home. ASBO's can only be used against an individual over the age of 10 and must be used in a framework of partnership with all relevant agencies. I think the age should be reduced because people under 10 are just as naughty.
