Over the past few days there have been growing reports of people purchasing refreshments from local pubs, cafes and restaurants and then consuming the goods e.g. alcohol beverages, outside of the premise or in local parks and open spaces. Businesses are also warned that they have a responsibility to make sure that their trading decisions do not encourage anti-social behaviour. Cllr Roberts warns businesses, if they see people are repeatedly buying takeaway refreshments, particularly alcohol, and consuming them right outside their front door or in the park over the road, the Council will act.
