Community Safety
Audit of Crime, Disorder and Drugs in the borough
The Crime and Disorder Act 1998 sets out a legal requirement for the local authority, Police, Health Authority and Probation Service to form a statutory partnership in every borough.
In the Act it requires each partnership to conduct an audit of crime, disorder and drugs every 3 years and in December 2004, the team published the third audit.
The findings of the Audit and Consultation (see below) will provide the foundation for the new Community Safety Strategy, which came into effect on 1 April 2005.
This strategy covers a 3 year programme for tackling some of the problems associated with crime and disorder in the borough.
