POLICE say that early indications suggest that the newly imposed Public Space Protection Order in Dawlish has had a positive effect in the town.
 
It was imposed at the end of the August and it bans anti-social behaviour such as drinking and rough sleeping, drug taking and littering, with failure to comply with the PSPO being a criminal offence.

Me too Deedoodle! I too walked around town last week in the late afternoon and evenings and saw the usual suspects openly drinking from beer cans, cider bottles etc! Not a plastic or real Bobby in sight to impose the PSPO! Why do we have this problem in Dawlish and other towns do not seem suffer a similar problem?
