The ASB case review was designed to act as a vital safety net for those victims of persistent anti-social behaviour, and by prompting multiple agencies to consider the case, it was designed to offer a pathway to resolution—a source of hope in breaking this continuous cycle of harm. This is why I want to see Amendment 27 place a statutory requirement on police to undertake an assessment of harm on the third call-out within a six-month period. This would help identify victims earlier in the cycle and build a clearer picture, sooner, of the cumulative impact it is having on the victims.
