Anti Social Behaviour

The request is waiting for clarification. If you are Ian Richardson, please sign in to send a follow up message.

Dear Lewisham Homes,

I would like to request the following information for the years of 2015 and 2014.

1. How many cases of anti-social behaviour and neighbour nuisance were reported to Lewisham Homes?

2. How many tenants actually had lost their tenancies (i.e were evicted) as result of anti-social behaviour? Please exclude those convicted on the grounds of non-payment of rent.

3. How many of those resulted from serious criminal convictions e.g Murder, attempted murder and GBH?

3. How many tenants were issued with Criminal Behaviour Orders (the replacement for ASBOs) as result of legal action by Lewisham Homes?

4. How times in 2015 and 2016 did Lewisham Homes invoke in court their increased rights for absolute grounds for possession under Anti-Social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014 Part to cancel tenancies for those convicted of crimes?

5. In those years has any tenant ever been evicted for noise nuisance solely? If none, then what actions, apart for warning letters and interviews, does Lewisham Homes ever take against perpetrators?

If the costs are excessive then please restrict to years 2015 (2016 in regard to question 4). If still excessive then please address 1,2 and 4.

Yours faithfully,

Ian Richardson
