Describes how Anti-Social Behaviour Orders (ASBOs) and Acceptable Behaviour Contracts (ABCs) which were introduced by the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 can help both landlords and tenants tackle anti-social behaviour. Focuses on retail areas which are prime hang-outs for those involved in anti-social behaviour. ASBOs have far-reaching application and act as a strong disincentive to committing further offences. The concept of dispersal zones introduced by the Anti-Social Behaviour Act 2003 has extended the powers and measures introduced under the 1998 Act. Lists the behaviour types attracting ASBOs and steps that shopping centre managers can take to reduce anti-social behaviour. Concludes with alternative methods of control where an ASBO is not an option.
