Antisocial Behaviour and Hate Policy

An ASB case review allows a victim experiencing antisocial behaviour to request a formal review of their case and bring agencies together to take a joined-up, problem-solving approach to find a solution for the victim.

The ASB case review threshold is met when:

• an application for an ASB case review is made, and
• at least 3 qualifying complaints have been made about antisocial behaviour

The complaints could be made to the same or different organisations. The complaint is made within 1 month of the alleged incident occurring and the ASB case review is activated within 6 months from the date of the complaint.

Requests for an ASB case review to be activated are co-ordinated by the Northumbria Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC).

The Neighbourhood Relations Team Manager attends these reviews in relation to Gateshead Council tenancies.
