Unit 12: Crime and its effects on society
P1-Outline the current crime and disorder legislation Anti-social behaviour act 2003
The anti-social behaviour act was made in 2003. The reason for why this was made was to make the rules of anti-social behaviour better and work more efficient also to do the same with the fixed penalty notices. The rules of this act is no one that is under the age of 16 is allowed to buy spray paint due to graffiti on private properties, no group of teenagers are allowed to do anything wrong to the public and also no public drunkenness which can lead to people disturbing the peace. An example for this could be the ASBO’s.

This act had got 376 crime and disorder teams to split up and

There was a debate about this that people have been complaining that this act hasn’t been doing their job properly and there have been lots of anti-social behaviour going on and nothing is done about it. For the community in March 2003 the government had publish on the news that the Anti-social behaviour act tends to challenge Anti-social behaviour done by the society and are doing a good job of it and have now a have a bigger group that makes this act much more efficient. Also the people were very happy and said they feel much relaxed and safe at that time. For the public service such as the PCSO’s who could be the ones who could take care of these situations about anti-social behaviour and can be relied on to make sure it doesn’t happen and they also need to confirm that they have a good understanding of what happens and how to solve the situations. The offenders who do all this can be instantly punished by the ASBO’s by them taking the offenders to court and could possibly give a …show more content…
It gives that individual the feeling that it is much safer and there's nothing to worry about such as anyone annoying them or damaging there properties. The impact of this legislation on the society is that if the society is full of people with anti-social behaviour then the public services (police) are the number priority for the government to keep the society safer by reducing the amount of anti-social behaviour to make an impact on the society and change their lives in a good way where they don't have to deal with people who use bad language, damage peoples properties and do stupid things such as randomly disturbing the society. The impact of this legislation on the organisational is that it creates a safer environment around organisations and allows organisations to work more efficiently and stress free. Another impact is that it gives an opportunity to organisations to be more successful and to make sure the people who work within that organisation feel well protected including the fact that they now can implement and achieve their work and keep the organisation to progress and grow into something
The policy was aimed mainly to apply to the youths of Western Australia, specifically those who frequently loitered in the Perth/Northbridge area. The policy prohibits children 12 or under to be in the area after sunset, and children between the ages of 13 to 15 after 10pm – unless under the care of a sober or responsible guardian. The policy is something that has also been directed to those all less than 18 years of age, who engage in what is said to be anti-social beha...
Tesco’s objective is to be the ‘champion for customers’, and they want to achieve this by being number one in customer satisfaction. They want to grow globally and by doing this they ‘create value for customers to earn their lifetime loyalty’. Tesco is

S1: it is in the area. One of my jobs is to be on the lookout for healthy recipes to share with that class. Next month we decided we are doing oven-fried recipes not southern fried. That is we pick a super food every month but this time we are going to take a super good. [laughter] instead of super food. And so I am collecting lots of different oven-fried fish that are done with canola, a table spoon of canola oil, And oven-fried green tomatoes and all kinds of things. It might be good to share some things like that with each other and create a cook book that could be shared digitally among all of us at no cost at all. But I collect recipes like that every month and they just go to one place. I could send them to live-well as well.
The developments in penal reform and policies in Scotland have grown with the creation of modern Scotland. Devolution fundamentally changed the nature of criminal justice in Scotland, and the research as shown that increased political involvement and the need for has changed the penal policies over the past few decades. Pre-devolution it was clear that policy-making was carried out in partnership between civil servants and agencies with a rate of change, but the introduction of devolution propelled policy-making into an unstable and heavily politicised environment, which was never the case before, where it now answers to political expediency and the political cycle and this forced the Scottish Criminal Justice Service to take shape become what it is today to deal with the new crime and punishment issues that were revolutionizing over time.
The main difference between lactase persistent and lactase non-persistent adults is that they possess different genes which implies that their genes are controlled differently. People who are lactase persistent usually have a lactase gene that is not switched off after their childhood. The body regulates the effects of a gene in three main ways. The first is regulation at the level of gene expression. This entails turning on and off of the gene or reducing the amount of gene product. The second way is through regulation at the level of RNA. This entails controlling levels of production of proteins through either modification or removal of RNA products to ensure that they do not undergo translation to form proteins. The third way is through
In February 2002, the House of Commons passed the Youth Criminal Justice Act (YCJA). The Act came into effect in April 2003, replacing the Young Offenders Act (Mapleleaf). The new legislation attempts to balance the legalistic framework of the Young Offenders Act and the social needs approach underlying the Juvenile Delinquents Act. This goal is apparent in the Declaration of Principle stating th...
One of the most common definition of ‘crime’ comes from the Labour Government (2007) quoted in Muncie, Talbot and Walters (2010) “Labour Governments ‘Respect’ website 2007 Crime is doing something forbidden by law. That could mean stealing a mobile phone, vandalism, graffiti, mugging, stealing or taking and selling drugs” (Muncie, Talbot and Walters, 2010, p. 3). This definition of crime is very much focused on the ideas of what criminologists would class as ‘street crimes’, crimes that are generally committed by the poorer people within society, young people who come from council estates. However this definition of ‘street crimes’ omits the crimes that are committed in ‘invisible spaces’ which tends to focus more on: domestic abuse, gender abuse and people trafficking and the ‘invisible crimes’ committed by the powerful elites of the world. These crimes tend to be focused on white collar crimes, environmental pollution and illegal arms dealings amongst many more. This definition of crime omits behaviours that are potentially more harmful, that could cause greater pain or loss (Muncie, Talbot and Walters, 2010, p. 3).
Public order is necessary because without it we wouldn’t be able to live our lives and enjoy the rights that we have today. The public order advocates believe that when the public’s safety is threatened, society’s interest should take priority over the offender’s constitutional rights given to all under “Bill of rights”. There is a need for public order so we can keep people from committing crimes
There are many different regulations and strategies which are used to safeguard young adults and one of these strategies is the recruitment of staff and preventing people who may harm vulnerable people from getting assess to them. for example, the adults barred list. The is a list of people which either has a high risk of harming others or a probable risk of harming others. The people on the list are barred from working in health and social care settings and around vulnerable people. There are many different places where information is received from and this may include the police, courts, or health and social services. all this information is used to decide whether they are at risk of harming vulnerable people in order to decide whether they
There have been many contributors when it came to tackling anti-social behaviour and preventing crime however, the most influential contributors are Wilson and Kelling. They came up with the theory of broken window which will be further explain in this essay. This essay will outline the broken window theory, as well as explain what is meant by broken window. Finally it will give examples that exemplify the broken window theory. (Maguire, Morgan and Reiner, 2012)

This prevention strategy is primarily aimed at reducing the opportunities for crime which arises from everyday life rather than simply responding to crime; relying on the police after the offence for e.g. using closed circuit television surveillance (CCTV) in surroundings that crime might occur with regards to preventing potential offending from causing an offence. For e.g. by placing a limit of access of such a person to shopping malls “only 3 school children are allowed per shopping”. This approach also aims to ‘remove the excuse’ that is eliminating anything that is eye-catching to criminals about accomplishing that specific crime. An illustration of this is the technique they use at the shoe outlet. At the Footlocker shop, there is only one shoe on the display counter, this makes stealing the shoe unpleasing and unproductive for thieve because it would not be logical to steal only one shoe regardless if...
It is arguable that nowadays we have made things a lot easier for criminals and the rising in consumer goods had created many more opportunities also. Many statistics do not tell the whole story of crime, especially of youth crime. In the same way that statistics are changing, the way crime is being dealt with and criminal behaviour is also changing. An example of this is that before the police got involved with school incidents, teachers and parents dealt with them. An example of this is an incident from 2004, where it was reported that a young 12-year-old boy was arrested and reprimanded after throwing a fork at a girl during an argument in a playground. Even though this crime was far from being seen from police eyes, they still saw a duty to intervene.
Being able to protect one’s self and family is a right that everybody should be able to carry out without any hindrance from any government entity. Yet in this country “the land of the free” we still have laws that do just that. It is a common misconception that the Police are there to protect the public from the criminal element. This was decided in a landmark ...
