Schedule 4: ASB case reviews: supplementary provision
234.Schedule 4 makes additional provisions for the community trigger. The review procedures must include:
what happens when the applicant is dissatisfied with the way their application was dealt with or the review carried out (paragraph 3);
an assessment of the effectiveness of the procedures and revising them (paragraph 4).
235.In making and revising the procedures, the relevant bodies must consult the PCC (or Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime or Common Council of the City of London), and the appropriate local providers of social housing (paragraphs 1 and 2).
236.Paragraph 7 sets out the information sharing requirements. The relevant bodies may request any person to disclose information in order to carry out the case review. If the information relates to a public function, agencies must comply with the request for information unless it contravenes the Data Protection Act 1998 or Part 1 of the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000.
237.Part 2 of Schedule 4 sets out arrangements for co-opting local providers of social housing to be included among the relevant bodies. In practice this may mean that larger housing providers play a regular part in community trigger case reviews in their area, and in setting up the procedure; whereas smaller housing providers would be consulted on the procedures and be involved in community triggers which relate to their tenants. The providers of social housing must co-operate with the relevant bodies for the purpose of the case reviews.
