The policing response to antisocial behaviour: PEEL spotlight report
This report focuses on the police response to antisocial behaviour. It also highlights examples of positive practice and joint working between the police and other organisations to address antisocial behaviour.
HMICFRS drew on evidence from academic research, national guidance and findings from:
- the police effectiveness, efficiency and legitimacy (PEEL) programme;
- force management statements (self-assessments that chief constables and their London equivalents prepare and give to us each year);
- a request for promising practice to all forces by the College of Policing; and
- publicly available data.

OPFCC Comment
“This report highlights the impact of anti-social behaviour has on local communities and how it can damage lives. The PFCC accepts all recommendations and in response will require the Chief Constable to provide him with a comprehensive update relating to the recommendations as set out in the report. The PFCC will also seek assurances from the chief constable that dealing with anti-social behaviour will be at the heart of our new neighbourhood policing guarantee.”
