Origin edit

The United Kingdom Government published a paper "Drinking Responsibly - The Government's Proposals" [2] in 2005 setting out their proposals for introducing Drinking Banning Orders (DBOs).[3] Schedule 5 of the act repeals the Licensed Premises (Exclusion of Certain Persons) Act 1980 because the exclusions from certain premises under the provisions of that act are made redundant.

Content edit

The 66 sections and 5 Schedules of the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006 cover a wide range of measures.

  • Part 1 of the Act deals with alcohol-related violence and disorder. (ss. 1 to 27)
  • Part 2 deals with weapons. (ss. 28 to 51)
  • Part 3 deals with a miscellany: football disorder, sexual offences, anti-social behaviour, parenting orders, mobile phone reprogramming, and licensing in relation to sports grounds. It repealed and replaced large sections of the Football Spectators Act 1989. (ss. 52 to 63)
  • Part 4 of the Act deals with general housekeeping like expenses and repeals. (ss. 64 to 66)
