Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review

The Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review gives those affected the right to request an antisocial behaviour case review

Responding to, and tackling, anti-social behaviour is a priority for all community safety partners in Derbyshire. The High Peak Community Safety Partnership brings organisations together to enable us to bring to justice those causing anti-social behaviour and provide support for people affected by it.

We always strives to provide a high level of service, but recognise that there may be times when, we don't get it right. This is where the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review comes in.

What is the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review ?

The Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review gives victims of anti-social behaviour the right to request a review of their case if their concerns have not been dealt with and organisations have been unable to resolve the anti-social behaviour successfully.

The aim of the review is to see whether anything else can be done and possibly find solutions that may not have been considered before.

In Derbyshire, the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review process is managed by the local council on behalf of the other organisations that will be involved in the review. This includes the police, local health teams and housing providers.

When can I use the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review?

You can use the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review if you have reported three or more related incidents of anti-social behaviour within the last six months.

It doesn't matter who the anti-social behaviour has been reported to and you can apply for the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review on behalf of someone else, but you must provide their consent, with the application form.

An explanation of the threshold for the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review can be found in our Guidance Notes.

When should the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review not be used?

The Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review is not an alternative to the relevant organisation's complaints procedure.

If you have followed the relevant organisation's complaints procedure and you are still dissatisfied, you will be given information about the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman, the Housing Ombudsman or the Independent Office for Police Conduct.

What happens when I submit a Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review Application Form?

We will confirm receipt of a completed Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review Application Form, within five working days.

We will review the information you have provided to determine whether your case meets the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review threshold. If it does, an Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review will take place. The case review will discuss the issues you raise, consider what action has already been taken and consider recommendations for additional action to resolve the problem.

We will inform you of the outcome and recommendations.

If you are not satisfied with the outcome of the Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review, you can appeal with the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Derbyshire. www.derbyshire-pcc.gov.uk/Public-Information/CommunityTrigger

We welcome the opportunity to review cases of anti-social behaviour, but Anti-Social Behaviour Case Review applications may be rejected if they are thought to be prejudicial, discriminatory, malicious, unreasonable or vexatious.
