Part 11 of the Criminal Justice Act 2006, which provides for civil proceedings in relation to anti-social behaviour by adults, was commenced on 1 January, 2007. Part 13 of the Act relating to anti-social behaviour by children was commenced on 1 March, 2007. These provisions set out an incremental procedure for addressing anti-social behaviour by adults and children. I am informed by the Garda authorities that 21 behaviour warnings and no civil and behaviour orders have been issued in the Garda Division referred to by the Deputy. Details are provided on a Divisional basis only to preserve anonymity.
