MSPs back anti-yob legislation

The Scottish parliament has backed plans to clamp down on anti-social behaviour in Scotland.

MSPs passed the Antisocial Behaviour (Scotland) Bill in Holyrood yesterday.

The legislation was agreed as part of the Scottish executive coalition agreement between Labour and the Liberal Democrats.

First minister Jack McConnell said the plans would "help bring respect back into our communities".
