East Devon District Council has three existing Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPOs) which apply across the district. These include a Dog Control PSPO, Seashores and Promenades PSPO, and Control of Anti-Social Behaviour & the Consumption of Intoxicating Substances in Exmouth PSPO. 

The current PSPOs can be found here: Public spaces protection orders (PSPOs) - East Devon

We are required to review the PSPOs every 3 years, and we will be starting the review process  in August 2024 with a full public consultation in Spring 2025.

If you would like the Council to consider any changes to the current 2023 PSPO’s which can then be included in the full public consultation, please provide your request with supporting evidence via the form below.

Evidence to change existing controls should demonstrate the effect of antisocial behaviour on a community, whether the behaviour is unreasonable and persistent, and whether it justifies the restrictions imposed.

Requests for changes to the current 2023 PSPO’s will be accepted until 30th September 2024 to be included in the public consultation process.

Please note all representations will be given democratic consideration however this does not guarantee that your recommendation will be accepted of final consultation.
