ANTI-social tenants -- and how to deal with them -- will be discussed at a one-day conference in Bury.

The event, on Thursday, June 20, is centred on a recent consultation paper, entitled Tackling Anti-social Tenants for Local Authority Housing and Housing Associations, which was issued by the Government earlier this year.

Bury Council's housing spokesman, Cllr John Smith, said: "As a council, we are committed to ensure that everyone can enjoy the peace, quiet and comfort of their own home. This event will be a real opportunity for local people to influence and shape the policies of the service we deliver in the future."

More details about the event at Bury Town Hall are available on 0161 253 6218.
