I am sure that, like me, the cabinet secretary has met constituents whose communities have been blighted by individuals causing severe disruption and engaging in antisocial behaviour. Very often, those constituents have sought the help of the police, the antisocial behaviour unit and local housing providers without any success and it is not until cases get to court and the offenders in question are sent to prison, albeit for a very short time, that the constituents in those communities get any respite from that behaviour.
