Baroness Watkins of Tavistock (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 December 2024

Debate

Respect Orders and Anti-social Behaviour

Contribution

My Lords, living on Dartmoor, I am aware of increasing anti-social behaviour in rural communities, including county line drug running, electric bikes frightening livestock, the stealing of agricultural equipment and stealing from small local shops. Can the Government explain their approach to ensuring public safety and security of low-population rural communities, as the Minister’s Statement makes no mention of rural communities? I would welcome the Minister’s explanation on this issue.
