Agenda item

Cabinet considered a report outlining a proposed new Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) to address alcohol and drug related crime, disorder and nuisance in the area identified in Llanelli.

PSPOs deal with a particular issue or issues in an identified area which is having a detrimental impact on the local community’s quality of life. Conditions are imposed, within the Order, to restrict specific behaviour which is evidenced and must be proportionate to the detrimental effect that the behaviour is causing or can cause and are necessary to prevent it from continuing, occurring or recurring. Following consideration of the impact of the previous Order and engagement with local stakeholders it was considered appropriate to propose a new Order for the area.

UNANIMOUSLY RESOLVED that the making of a new PSPO for Llanelli Town Centre, as detailed in the report, be approved.
