[holding answer 15 October 2001]The number of antisocial behaviour orders (ASBOs) being applied for and issued is collected centrally by Magistrates Courts Committee (MCC) area only. We have no record of any such orders being made in the Wiltshire MCC between April 1999 and June 2001.

No applications have been received from local authorities or the police to establish child curfew schemes under section 14 of he Crime and Disorder Act 1998, as amended by sections 48 and 49 of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001. These amendments extended the upper age limit to 15 and allow the police, as well as local authorities, to initiate schemes. These changes were implemented on 1 August 2001.
