This report sets out the proposed terms of the new Public Spaces Protection Orders and seeks approval of the process for consultation and the making of those new orders.

Resolved:

1.  That the terms of the proposed Public Spaces Protection Orders annexed to this report are approved.

2.  That officers are authorised to publicise the proposed Public Spaces Protection Orders and carry out consultation and notification as required by the Anti-Social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014.

3.  That the Corporate Portfolio Holder in consultation with the Head of Legal and Democratic Services is authorised to consider the outcome of the consultation and to approve the making of the PSPOs with such amendments as are deemed necessary. 

Consideration was given to the report of the Corporate Portfolio Holder, which set out proposed terms for new Public Spaces Protection Orders relating to alcohol consumption and dog-related issues as the current orders would expire in October 2020.

It was noted that a consultation would be undertaken on the proposed new PSPOs in order to comply with the requirements of the Antisocial Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014.  All representations received through the consultation process would be considered when making the final PSPOs.

Having considered the options and for the reasons set out in the report, Cabinet agreed to the following:

Resolved:

1.  That the terms of the proposed Public Spaces Protection Orders annexed to this report are approved.

2.  That officers are authorised to publicise the proposed Public Spaces Protection Orders and carry out consultation and notification as required by the Anti-Social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014.
