Banning Of Covering Of Faces Within Public Areas

Additional Information

The police can't be everywhere at once and Antisocial behaviour has hit an all-time high.

If a law was passed to prevent people covering their faces in public areas along with the use of CCTV and smart phones capturing offenders I believe this would be an effective deterrent.

I propose we call for a banning of the hiding of faces within public area's to make people feel safer and criminals to be detected easier is a major step forward.

This proposed act would cover ALL religions, creed or origin.

The public need to feel safer and criminals need to be identified more effectively.
