Sussex Police: Dispersal Power

Councillors are informed that Sussex Police have invoked an Inspector led Authority – Dispersal Power(S34 ASB Crime & Policing Act 2014).

 

This is a pre-emptive order and covers the following roads and areas:

·         A2219

·         Ifield Rd

·         High Street

·         Peglar Way

·         Bank Lane

·         The Boulevard

·         The Square

·         Haslett Avenue West

·         Station Road

·         The Broadway

·         Friary Walk

 

 

This dispersal power is being put in place in order to minimise risk to members of the public, in respect of them being subject to anti-social behaviour including drinking alcoholic beverages in a designated area, drug use and supply, assaults, theft, criminal damage, aggressive behaviour, general anti-social behaviour.

 

In addition, the availability of the power will maximise the safety of police officers by giving them a power to intervene, at an early stage, in any occurrence of anti-social behaviour which could put their safety, or the safety of others at risk.

 

This dispersal will be in place every weekend as of now through to the end of the festive season, and should be seen as one of a raft of measures aimed at increasing safety, reducing crime and anti-social behaviour in and around our Town Centre.
