Gathering evidence for your report

We need evidence to take action against someone for anti-social behaviour. If the evidence confirms anti-social behaviour, we will take fair, reasonable, and proportionate enforcement action, including court action where appropriate.

We will ask you to keep records of further incidents using Nuisance Monitoring forms. This helps us stay informed about what is happening and what you are experiencing.

What is a Nuisance Monitoring form?

A Nuisance Monitoring form is an ongoing record of anti-social behaviour issues you have experienced or are experiencing. These forms can be used as evidence in court.

Why Nuisance Monitoring forms are important

We need enough evidence to effectively deal with your case and, if necessary, take legal action against those causing the problems.

If you ask us not to speak with the person/people causing anti-social behaviour issues or wish to remain anonymous, it might be difficult to take the case further. Sometimes, you might feel that the action taken is not adequate, but we will always explain the reasons behind our decisions.
