...good ,bad or useless .
Reading my local paper tonight i noticed that the first application for such an order in the NE has been granted by a judge .Are they workable ? or a bit like ASBO's ,a total waste of time .My own feelings are that the dealers will find other ways to sell their wares
Quote:
DRUG dealers jailed for flooding Tyneside with hundreds of thousands of pounds of cocaine will have strict restrictions on their lives when they get out.
Brothers Stephen and Anthony Goicoechea, along with associate Terrence Page, are some of the first crooks on Tyneside to be handed with Serious Crime Prevention Orders by a judge.
The measures imposed at Newcastle Crown Court bans them from engaging in any activities that may help them return to a life of crime after their release from prison.
Under the terms of the order all three of them will be banned from:
:: Having more than one mobile phone at any time, which must be registered with the police.
:: Possessing more than £500 cash.
:: Having more than one current account, savings account or credit card.
:: Using taxis to transfer goods or documents unless a third party is present other than the taxi driver.
