Anti Social Behaviour (ASB) in Havering - continued

If we need more information we might ask you to keep an “incident diary” of problems for a short time. These are some actions we can take:

Referral for a free mediation service
Formal warnings, by interview or letter
Issuing ”yellow” or “red cards” with a letter to the parents where the perpetrator is a young person (other steps may follow)
Drawing up agreements about future behaviour – known as “Acceptable Behaviour Contracts” and “Parental Control Agreements”
Serving notices for noise abatement or fly-tipping
Improving the design and safety of the location
Action through the tenancy agreement where Homes in Havering or a housing association owns the perpetrator’s home
Referral for specialist support where behaviour is affected by mental ill-health, alcohol or drug misuse
Applications to court for Anti-social Behaviour Orders
Dispersal zones – authorised by the police
Temporary closure of problem premises in connection with class A drugs or extreme anti-social behaviour
Criminal prosecution where behaviour crosses the criminal threshold
