Fixed Penalty Notice charging schedule re Public Space Protection Orders (for anti-social behaviour related to alcohol) (WL)
The Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPOs)
restricting street drinking in Bath City and Midsomer Norton were
renewed in September 2024. These orders, implemented under the
Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014, are crucial for
maintaining public safety and addressing anti-social behaviour in
these areas.
To enforce these PSPOs effectively, it is essential to establish a
clear and consistent penalty framework for breaches. This proposal
aims to set the penalty levels for Fixed Penalty Notices (FPNs)
issued under the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act
2014, specifically for PSPO breaches. The goal is to ensure
transparency, consistency, and formal documentation of the penalty
levels.
