Generating Ideas
The next stage involves generating ideas on how to tackle the alcohol-related crime
and disorder problems identified.
When considering interventions for tackling alcohol-related crime and disorder
problems, Crime & Disorder Partnerships are advised that to be effective the problem
needs to be addressed as a whole.
Addressing any part of the problem in isolation will not provide a long-term solution.
Tough enforcement action will not decrease violent or anti-social behaviour unless
linked to effective prevention. Closures of licensed premises may only move the problem
elsewhere unless perpetrators/offenders are made to change their behaviour.
A three pronged attack on alcohol related crime is recommended based on:
Prevention
enforcement
treatment
