Charities have expressed disappointment in the Government's plan to tackle anti-social behaviour, calling it a further criminalisation of vulnerable people.Part of the proposals include targeting beggars causing a nuisance on Britain's streets.The Government's plan, published on Monday, states an intention to introduce new powers to prohibit organised begging which is often facilitated by criminal gangs to obtain cash for illicit activity as well as begging where it is causing a public nuisance with examples given including by a cashpoint, in a shop doorway or on public transport.
