An Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) Case Review, previously known as a Community Trigger, allows members of the public experiencing Anti-Social Behaviour to request a review of their case.
Along with other agencies, BCH then have a duty to undertake a review of how the case was dealt with where it involves someone who is unhappy with previous outcomes and where the case meets the locally defined threshold.
The ASB Case Review can be used by:
- Any victim of anti-social behaviour
- Any person acting on behalf of a victim, such as a family member, friend, carer, councillor or MP
- Other professional person/s
This is to ensure that all victims are able to use the ASB Case Review, but the victim's consent should be sought first. If any of the following criteria is met by the person experiencing anti-social behaviour, they may be eligible for an ASB Case Review:
- You, as an individual, have experienced 3 or more instances of anti-social behaviour within the last 6 months
- 5 or more individuals have experienced the same or similar incidents of anti-social behaviour within the last 6 months
- You, as an individual, have experienced one incident motivated by hate (hate incident/hate crime) within the last 6 months
