Premises Closures
When a property has been taken over by drug users or dealers of Class A drugs "crack house" closure orders can be used to close the house down and keep it closed. Also, if a property has been the cause of significant and persistent anti-social behaviour, "premise" closure orders can be used in a similar way. An order can last for up to three months, and can be extended for a further three months. During this time the property will be sealed, and it is an offence to enter or remain in the property.
