Public Space Protection Order and Dog Exclusion Zone Consultation 2026

Audience: Public and stakeholders

This consultation is now closed.

It was open from 14 May 2026 to 10 July 2026.

Public Space Protection Orders (PSPOs) were introduced by the Anti-Social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2012 to tackle anti-social and nuisance behaviour. The need for them has to be supported by evidence and they have to be reviewed every three years to either update or renew or expire.

We want to hear views from members of the public and statutory consultees on our public spaces protection orders (PSPOs) through an online survey: West Suffolk Council Public Space Protection Order and Dog Exclusion Zone Consultation 2026 survey

This survey is intended to gather views from local stakeholders so that West Suffolk can make an informed decision on all PSPO renewals. If you find that once you finish the survey, you would like to comment on a different section, please retake the survey.

The consultation is open until Friday 10 July 11:59pm.

Responses will remain anonymous. Anyone who has trouble accessing the online consultation should email policy@westsuffolk.gov.uk or phone 01284 757638.
