New plans to tackle crime will “help take back control of town centres”, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has said.
The Government’s new Crime and Policing Bill will be introduced to Parliament on Tuesday with a range of measures from tackling knife crime to anti-social behaviour.
This includes giving police officers new powers to search a place where stolen items have been electronically located.
