Labour announces plans for safer communities Print E-mail
Thursday, 19 April 2007

First Minister Jack McConnell today set out Labour's name and shame policy, plans for new instant ASBOs and a commitment to double the number of community wardens to over 1,000.

Labour also plans to establish over 300 community police teams to cover every area in Scotland with a named senior police officer who will report to the communities that they serve.

McConnell said: "David Cameron would rather hug a hoodie than back tough action on anti-social behaviour. But there is a chance for him and for the other parties in Scotland to prove that they are serious about law and order.

"Will they commit today to backing Labour's name and shame policy? And will they commit today to back our plans for instant ASBOs. Tackling crime and anti-social behaviour is essential to building safer communities.

"In the last Parliament we delivered new powers for the police and councils, including dispersal orders, parenting orders ASBOs for under 16s and closure orders. But the battle against anti-social behaviour goes on."
