What steps she is taking to help tackle anti-social behaviour in (a) Halifax constituency and (b) West Yorkshire.

Reply

Tackling anti-social behaviour is a top priority for this Government, and a key part of our Safer Streets Mission to take back our streets.​We will put thousands of new neighbourhood police and community support officers into local communities, such as Halifax and in West Yorkshire, so that residents have a named officer they can turn to when things go wrong.​We will 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.The Home Office is providing £66.3m funding this financial year (2024/25) to police forces in England and Wales for hotspot policing to tackle anti-social behaviour and serious violence. West Yorkshire police have been allocated £2,476,420 of this funding.
