To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many antisocial behaviour orders have been issued in Sussex; and how many have led to subsequent court proceedings. [5937]

Mr. Denham

Available data show that up to 31 March 2001 four antisocial behaviour orders (ASBOs) have been issued within the Sussex area.

Provisional data taken from the Home Office court proceedings database show that up to December 2000 two persons within the Sussex police force area have been proceeded against for the criminal offence of breaching an ASBO.
