Windsor council has been accused of punishing people for
being homeless after plans emerged to fine rough sleepers £100 as part of a new
“homelessness support strategy”. The Council will impose public space protection orders (PSPOs) banning aggressive or proactive begging, requests for
money, leaving bedding and belongings in a public area and urination or
defecation in town centres in the area, including Windsor, Maidenhead, Ascot and
Eton. Breaches would lead to a £100 fixed penalty notice, which would be cut to
£50 for early payment, but offenders could face a summary conviction and a
£1,000 fine if they fail to pay. Read more on the Observer website.
