Antisocial Behaviour (ASB)

Partners in the Humber region have already made efforts to tackle ASB within our communities, reducing reported incidents by 16% from 2023-24 compared to 2022-23 (ONS figures). However, we strive to keep improving and further reduce the impact in the community, promoting multi-agency collaborative approaches.

Local Policing Body Review

The Local Policing Body (LPB) Review is a new process introduced through the Crime and Policing Act 2026. It places a duty on Local Policing Bodies – including Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) – to review how local agencies in their area, such as councils or the police, have responded to victims of anti-social behaviour (ASB) who have requested an ASB Case Review

On What Grounds May I Apply for an LPB Review?

You must have applied for an ASB Case Review and either:

  • You have been told that threshold for carrying out an ASB Case Review was not met and you disagree; or 
  • You are dissatisfied with the outcome of the ASB Case Review and feel important information was not taken into account or you feel the review was not completed properly. 

You cannot apply for an LPB review just because you disagree with the outcome of an ASB Case Review: The purpose of the LPB Review is to determine whether appropriate steps were taken, whether the response was appropriate, and explore whether opportunities may have been missed or where further interventions may be required.

 

What Might Happen as a Result of an LPB Review?

The PCC can make recommendations to the agencies involved in the ASB Case Review. The PCC may agree with the initial recommendations made by the relevant agencies and suggest no further action, or alternatively, may propose further or different recommendations. 

The agencies must pay due regard to the PCC’s recommendations. This means that they are not obliged to carry out the actions, but they must acknowledge the recommendation, prove they have considered it and be open to challenge if they choose not to carry it out.
