Please take a few minutes to complete this survey as Thames Valley Police would like to know your thoughts about the South Oxfordshire District Council’s proposal to introduce a Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) in Thame.
Please go to http://survey.southandvale.gov.uk/s/PSPO_Thame/ and click next on the first page to start the survey.
The order, if put in place, will mean that police are given discretionary powers to:
• Request people stop drinking alcohol, and confiscate it if they refuse
• Stop groups of people causing alarm, distress, harassment, or a nuisance in a public space
Fixed penalty notices of £100 could be issued to people who do not refrain from this behaviour when asked. We are proposing that the order would apply to people aged 18+.
The council and the police in Thame think that introducing this order will have a positive impact on the well-being on the local community.
Responses to this consultation need to be made by midnight Monday 20 November 2017. We will consider all feedback received when deciding whether or not to introduce the order.
