To extend the Norfolk Street passageway PSPO by a further 3 years.

AGREED to approve the extension of the PSPO for a further 3-year period which prevents access through a passageway located between Norfolk Street and West Street in Wisbech.

Members considered the Extension of the Norfolk Street Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) report presented by Councillor Wallwork.

Councillor Tierney said whilst he will support this, he believes PSPOs are largely ineffective as Norfolk Street continues to have problems. However, he supports the police but would like them to be more visible and careful in how they use their resources. Councillor Wallwork said this measure closes an alleyway and is therefore 100% effective.

Proposed by Councillor Wallwork, seconded by Councillor Imafidon and AGREED to approve the extension of the PSPO for a further 3-year period which prevents access through a passageway located between Norfolk Street and West Street in Wisbech.
