It is important that local authorities are given the proper resources to provide facilities for young people and to tackle problems such as drug abuse, abandoned cars and so on. The education aspect is important in preventing crime. Anti-crime programmes dealing with joy-riding and other crimes should be in place in schools. We need to instil civic mindedness and a respect for the environment in young people. I recognise that type of work is carried out in schools, but the necessary back-up must be provided.
