Decision taken
Cabinet noted the report and agreed the 4 recommendations set out in the report
Reason for decision
This scrutiny area was selected by OSC members because there was an interest in understanding the extent of youth ASB and violence in the borough and what provision, facilities and support there was in place for young people. It was recognised that whilst not the direct responsibility of the council, the council via the Community Safety Partnership has a key role with partners in addressing this matter.
