Part 6: Local Involvement and Accountability

THE VICTIM’S RIGHT TO DEMAND ACTION
What is the Community Trigger?
A qualifying complaint is: -
• An incident of anti-social behaviour reported within 30 days to either the police, housing provider or local authority where no effective action has been taken to resolve the case.
• Best practice is to consider the seriousness and persistence of the anti-social behaviour.
PRACTITIONERS SHOULD APPLY A HARM CENTRED APPROACH THROUGHOUT THE MANAGEMENT OF THE
CASE
Threshold
The threshold is set locally but must be no higher than three qualifying complaints in the proceeding 6 months before the activation request.
Best Practice and Hate Crime = one qualifying complaint
Reference to five households is not legal (this was only applied in the Community Trigger trials in 2012 and should be removed from all literature).
Survey of 40 Local Authorities found: -
