On 19th December 2024, I welcomed Ipswich Borough Council's introduction of tough new measures designed to help tackle anti-social drinking and related anti-social behaviour in our town.
Anti-social behaviour is not a victimless crime, and I know this is something which must be tackled if we are to revive our town centre.
I have had a number of conversations with Ipswich Borough Council and Ipswich Central about this specific initiative, so I warmly welcome this new partnership.
Ipswich Central's Street Security team already does an important job in supporting businesses and shoppers on our high street, supplementing the efforts of the police, and these new powers will help build on their good work.
This is an innovative, positive step forward that I know will also be welcomed by local people, businesses, and visitors to our town.
