DELIVERING LOCAL POLICING
B uilding public confidence and trust is how Tayside Police aims to improve satisfaction with the quality of service provided to its communities. This is achieved through the effec-
tive delivery of policing services which meet the needs of local communities. It is about ease of access to services, giving the public a voice in order to influence how the force responds to is-sues that matter to them, delivering appropriate and robust interventions, working with partners, providing feedback to the public and keeping them informed of progress and improvement.
C orporate support forms an important role in ensuring that appropriate resources are in place to deliver an efficient and effective service to the public.
The force uses performance indicators to gather information about performance, quality of ser-vice and public perception. These are listed below. They are derived from priorities identified through the annual strategic assessment and also include issues, such as housebreaking and vandalism, identified through public feedback. The challenging economic climate means that robust monitoring and reporting processes are instrumental in ensuring that the force is on track to deliver its objectives within the resources available.
Key Performance Indicators
1. Standards of Service
• First Contact : overall satisfaction rating
• First Contact: caller provided with the name of the call handler
• Proportion of people who received an update on the progress of their enquiry
• Overall customer experience of the service provided by the police
2. Crime and Detection Rates
• Violent Crime
• Robbery
• Vandalism
• Domestic Housebreaking
3. Road Casualties
4. Proportion of working time lost to sickness absence
In addition, a programme of regular surveys tests local public opinion on how neighbourhoods are policed in order that where action is required, it can be initiated in a timely manner.
Introduction

Background
P erformance Indicators are derived from detailed policing plans and busi-
ness plans outlining what Local Policing Ar-eas and supporting departments intend to deliver in support of the priorities set out in the three-year Tayside Policing Plan 2011-2014. These form the basis for this per-formance publication. Two community priorities: ‘Public Safety’ and ‘Public Reassurance’, underpin the policing plan . Analysis of data and context
1 with respect
to performance indicators, combined with the outputs from public consultation, pro-vide an indication of the extent to which the force is succeeding in contributing to im-proved community outcomes.
What this will tell us about performance
Tayside Police Key Performance Indicators
help the force define and measure progress
toward the achievement of standards of
service and force objectives.
Monitoring results over the longer term al-
lows the force to see where sustained im-
provement occurs, or identifies challenges
which require to be addressed.
Consulting, engaging and listening Public consultation and feedback runs as a thread throughout performance manage-ment and provides information that lets us know whether we are doing things right. ‘Customers’ include our staff. FOOTNOTE: 1.Context Indicators are not measures of performance per se; rather they provide additional background infor-mation in relation to the demands placed upon the force and the environment in which it operates.

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS
B aselines for improvement adopt the methodology used in previous years,
incorporating the most recent three years average performance as a starting point for improvement. For some KPIs a slight adjustment is ap-plied to the three-year average target which may take account of developing trends or patterns over the last 36 months. The target may be adjusted up or down ac-cordingly to ensure that it is both challeng-ing and realistic in terms of achievement . Improvement Targets are agreed annually through a process of consultation with terri-torial commanders and heads of depart-ments. These are ratified by the Force ex-ecutive and Tayside Joint Police Board.
R esults are colour-coded against the following criteria: Results are presented as a ‘Dashboard’ for ease of viewing. Further context is pro-vided at the beginning of the document as a summary. Behind the scenes, results over time are monitored using charts, to which upper and lower control limits are applied.
P erformance reporting. Where performance is adhering to the
‘norm’, i.e. remaining within upper and lower control limits, minimal reporting takes place. Areas of concern or exceptional
performance, lying outwith the upper or lower control limits, is commented upon in the summary. In addition, areas of police business not contained within the key performance indi-cators (such as fleet, health and safety, staff development) are reported on in dashboard style, subject to data being available, with a view to producing a bal-anced view of organisational activity. This promotes the diverse range of services that support operational policing.
P ublication of Performance Results. This document is published monthly on
the force web-site in accordance with the statutory requirement under Section 13 of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 2003 which covers public performance reporting in relation to the publication of performance information and evidence of continuous im-provement.

1. STANDARDS OF SERVICE Two out of four customer satisfaction targets were achieved for the period April to November 2012, with particular attention drawn to the ‘updating the public’ indicator where results exceeded the 2012/13 target set at 65.0% by 2.8 percentage points finalising at 67.8%. Overall satisfaction at first contact evidenced a 0.3 percentage point improvement compared to the same period the previous year rising from 94.0% to 94.3% and exceeded the force target set at 94.0% by 0.3 percentage points. The proportion of respondents who were provided with the name of the person dealing with their en-quiry fell marginally from 84.7% in 2011/12 to 83.9% in 2012/13, and failed to achieve the target set at 85.0%. Significant improvements were evident in relation to service users receiving an update on the progress of their enquiry increasing 7.1 percentage points to 67.8% compared to 60.7% in 2011/12. As previ-ously stated, this result exceeded the target set for 2012/13 of 65.0%. In addition, further analysis un-dertaken on this indicator highlighted that 82.1% of customers who had reported a crime were updated on progress with their enquiry with a lesser propor-tion, 45.0%, who had made contact for other rea-sons, confirming that they had received an update. Satisfaction with the overall service provided by Tayside Police returned an improvement of 0.2 per-centage points compared to the commensurate fig-ure last year, rising from 83.5% to 83.7%, just below the target of 85.0%.
2. CRIME Performance in relation to overall crime groups : • Violent crime (Group 1) - a decrease of 27.9%
(102 crimes) • Crimes of indecency (Group 2) - a decrease of
4.2% (13 crimes) • Crimes of dishonesty (Group 3) - a decrease of
1.8% (113 crimes) • Malicious mischief, vandalism etc (Group 4) -
a reduction of 10.4% (325 crimes) (Data was sourced directly from the crime reporting system on 3 December and may differ slightly to other published results due to some reclassification of crimes and any additional ‘no crime’ status being applied in the intervening period.)
Groups 1 to 4 collectively evidenced a 3.2% de-crease by the end of November which was repre-sentative of 327 fewer crimes. The force achieved 4 out of 9 crime-related targets for recorded violent crime and vandalism, and de-tection rates for robbery and housebreaking. The detection rate for groups 1 to 4 crimes (42.1%) failed to achieve target by 4.4 percentage points and a further 438 detections would have been required in order to achieve target. The detection rate for violent crime of 84.8% was a mere 0.2 percentage points below target and only one more detection would have achieved target. Results between April and August 2012 had all been above target and it was only in September that the result dipped to below target (84.4%). October and November saw improvements to 84.7% and 84.8% respectively, both frustratingly just a little below the target of 85.0% 81 robberies were recorded, 4 more than last year but just 1 more than the interim target for November. This differential had been 5 at the end of October and should 9 or fewer crimes be recorded in De-cember, target position will be regained. The detection rate for vandalism (29.0%) was 2 per-centage point below target (51 detections). 70 housebreakings were recorded in November, the second highest result this year. This brought the figure at the end of November to 505, 29 above the interim target figure of 476. In addition, considerably higher than average do-mestic housebreaking results recorded in Dundee LPA and Perth & Kinross LPA during April and May adversely affected the cumulative result. Despite the erratic nature of recording this year the overall trend is downward facing.
3. COMMUNITY POLICING The community policing questions are replicated in both the Service Satisfaction and Public Perception surveys in order to compare perceptions of commu-nity policing from a service user perspective (those who have had direct contact with the police – Ser-vice Satisfaction survey) and as a member of the general public, who may not have had contact with the police (Public Perception survey). For the purpose of this report, results quoted below represent the views of the general public (Public

Perception). It should be noted that these results are based upon a sample size of 655 of 2400, a re-sponse rate of 27.3%. • 52.7% of residents thought that the current
level of police patrols in their neighbourhood was ‘about right’ for their community needs. Conversely, 46.9% felt it was ‘too little’ and a minimal 0.4% believed that there was ‘too much’ patrolling.
• The majority of respondents, 74.3%, felt reas-sured when they witnessed an officer on patrol in their neighbourhood whilst 7.5% stated that it caused them concern. One in five respon-dents had no opinion either way.
• 12.3% of respondents confirmed that they were able to recognise their community officer either by name, sight or both. A further 15.0%, although unable to identify their local officer by sight or name, knew how to contact them should the need arise. 48.7% of resi-dents stated that they would like to know the identify of the community officers who looked after their neighbourhood whilst, interestingly, a quarter (24.0%), did not feel there was a need for them to know their community offi-cers.
• ‘Local newspapers’ were the preferred me-dium for respondents to be kept informed about actions being taken by officers in their communities.
• 56.1% of residents agreed that officers under-stood the issues that mattered in their neighbourhoods and 48.5% felt that officers were dealing with such matters. Overall, 62.5% of respondents had confidence in the police in their neighbourhood.
• Taking everything into account, 65.0% of the general public thought that community officers were doing a ‘good’ or ‘very good’ job in their area.
4. TELEPHONE RESPONSE Between April and the end of November 31,811 emergency calls were received and 88.0% of these were answered within 10 seconds. 166,127 non-emergency calls were received and 63.0% were an-swered within 40 seconds.
5. SICKNESS ABSENCE The absence rate for police officers was 3.6% at the end of November and met the target of 4.0%. This was an improvement on the 3.9% recorded at the same time last year. At the end of November 2012
the average number of days lost per officer was 5.0 compared to 5.5 at the end of November last year. In total, 6227 days were lost through sickness ab-sence, 33% were attributable to absences of 7 days or less, 17% through absences of between 8 and 28 days and the remaining 50% through absences of 29 days or more. The November police staff result of 5.3% was a de-terioration on the 3.7% recorded at the same time last year and failed to meet the target of 4.0%. In terms of average number of days lost per member of staff, this rose from 5.3 at the end of November last year to 7.8 this year. In total, 4049 days were lost through sickness ab-sence, 22% were attributable to absences of 7 days or less, 19% through absences of between 8 and 28 days and the remaining 59% through absences of 29 days or more.
6. ROAD CASUALTIES Between April and the end of November, 16 adult fatalities were recorded, one more than at the same time last year. A further 112 people were seriously injured, 24.3% fewer than the 148 people seriously injured at the same time last year. Included in these figures were children ~ 18 had been seriously in-jured during the first eight months of last year com-pared to 12 this year, a reduction of 33.3%. No chil-dren were killed during the first eight months of ei-ther year. The total number of people killed or seriously injured (128) was 35 fewer than last year—a reduction of 21%. From April 2011, the force adopted the govern-ment’s Road Safety Framework Targets to the year 2020.
7. PUBLIC PERCEPTION OF CRIME Nine out of ten respondents in Tayside, 90.3%, per-ceived their neighbourhood to be a safe place to live. This was a reduction of 1.4 percentage points compared to the same period the previous year when 91.7% of respondents were of the same opin-ion. Whilst opinions remained fairly static between 2012/13 and 2011/12 in relation to those who felt that crime levels had remained the same during the period – six out of ten respondents - a 1.4 percent-age point improvement was recorded for those who
Summary of results: April - November 2012

felt that crime had decreased rising from 13.8% to 15.2% and similarly, a 4.5 percentage point reduc-tion in those who felt that crime had increased, fal-ling from 26.5% to 22.0%. The main issues of concern to residents when asked unprompted were ‘drug dealing/drug abuse’, 17.1% (13.0%), closely followed by ‘speeding’, 16.1% (16.4%) and ‘housebreaking’, 11.2% (9.2%). This provides a similar representation of concerns as in the previous year with ‘drug dealing/drug abuse’ and ‘speeding’ changing position and ‘housebreaking’ replacing ‘antisocial behaviour’. In terms of prevalence of crime in local neighbour-hoods, four in ten respondents, 39.3% (44.9%) cited ‘antisocial behaviour’ as a common problem in their local area, followed by dangerous/careless driving’, 33.2% (32.9%) and ‘vandalism/graffiti’, 32.2% (37.4%). This result indicates that opinions mirrored those of the previous year where ‘antisocial behav-iour’ was deemed the most common issue blighting local communities. 33.1% (36.3%) of respondents confirmed that they were concerned at becoming a victim of crime in their area and when asked to comment on the is-sues which caused them concern, ‘housebreaking’, 47.0% (49.5%), followed by ‘antisocial behaviour’, 37.2% (45.4%) and ‘dangerous/careless driving’, 25.6% (25.2%), were the major issues of concern. Feelings of safety walking alone in local neighbour-hoods both during the day and after dark evidenced a decline in confidence in 2012/13 compared to 2011/12 whereby 94.0% (95.1%) of the public felt safe during the day and 59.5% (64.0%) felt safe af-ter dark. A minority 1.9% of residents stated that a fear of crime prevented them from taking part in their every-day activities. This represented a reduction of 2.8 percentage points compared to the 4.7% who pro-vided the same response in 2011/12. Service Delivery When asked to provide views on the force’s service delivery, first in terms of the importance of certain activities and then how well those activities were executed, every aspect of service delivery evi-denced an improvement in performance compared to the same period the previous year. This was par-ticularly apparent for ‘providing a visible presence’ which returned an improvement of 9.4 percentage points, rising from 44.6% in 2011/12 to 54.0% in
2012/13. In addition, ‘dealing with antisocial behav-iour’ returned a statistically significant improvement in performance increasing 5.7 percentage points to 73.6% compared to 67.9% the previous year.

CRIME Highlights
• Reduction of 35.8% in violent crime (19 crimes).
• Reduction in vandalism of 23.0% (59 crimes)
Performance alert! • 103.6% increase in the number of crimes
of domestic housebreaking recorded—from 28 to 57 (only 1 crime recorded in Novem-ber last year compared to 9 this year).

SECTION 3: STRATHMARTINE/COLDSIDE Main areas of public concern: drug dealing/abuse, vandalism/graffiti and housebreaking CRIME Highlights
• Reductions in all areas of crime recorded—including:
• Crimes of violence reduced by 41.2%, 21
fewer victims of crime DETECTION RATE Highlights
• Detection rate for violent crime improved from 76.5% to 96.7%
TARGETED COMMUNITY ACTIVITY Inspector Doug Winter said: ‘I was pleased to see that the results continued to reflect the good work in which the Coldside and Strathmartine officers are involved. It was particu-larly encouraging to see the positive results achieved in the areas of Customer Satisfaction. As I mentioned last month, the ‘After Dark’ cam-paign has commenced in response to the increased risk of housebreaking, which accompanies the re-duced hours of daylight at this time of the year. While many householders have acknowledged the advice provided by the police and have undoubtedly taken steps to improve the security of their homes, the Coldside and Strathmartine areas have both re-cently suffered from break-ins to houses and flats. Good investigations have led to arrests and in-creased patrols in some areas will deter others. Public assistance however, is invaluable to the po-lice and I would again encourage our local commu-nities to report suspicious behaviour to the police and to share information with us regarding any criminal activity.’

Policing Angus: Community Summaries ~ April to November 2012
SECTION 1: FORFAR & KIRRIEMUIR Main areas of public concern: drug dealing/drug abuse, speeding and youths causing annoyance
CRIME Performance alert!
• Increase of 91.7% in crimes of violence from 12 to 23
• 100 more crimes of dishonesty recorded this year than at the same time last year
TARGETED COMMUNITY ACTIVITY Inspector Ally Robertson said: ‘I was pleased with the overall performance deliv-ered to date for our communities. Although there were slight increases in crimes of violence and crimes of dishonesty, these were in conjunction with rises in detection rates. The people who are respon-sible for these crimes have been appropriately tar-geted and dealt with through the local courts and by our partnership agencies. The most satisfying as-pect of the overall report was that the public percep-tion results reflected the higher levels of visibility upon which we have focused all year. As we enter the festive period we will continue to be visible, approachable and committed to listening to the community and delivering the service they want.’
SECTION 2: MONTROSE & BRECHIN Main areas of public concern: speeding, drug dealing/abuse and youths causing annoyance
CRIME Performance alert!
• 34.7% increase in vandalism from 176 to 237
DETECTION RATE Performance alert!
• Detection rate for crimes of dishonesty down from 55.5% to 49.1%
STANDARDS OF SERVICE Highlights
• A significant improvement of 23.6 percent-age points in the number of respondents who stated that they had received an up-date on the progress of their enquiry from 43.8% last year to 67.4% at the end of No-vember this year
TARGETED COMMUNITY ACTIVITY Inspector Hamish Gray said: ‘Officers in Montrose and Brechin continued to carry out the ‘After Dark’ patrols with a view to providing public reassurance, but equally importantly to imple-ment the tried and tested preventative strategy to-wards crime and disorder, an approach that has been very successful for some time now. I would far rather use my resources to prevent an individ-ual from becoming the victim of a crime, than to in-vestigate and detect a crime that has already oc-curred. Also, in regard to using a preventative ap-proach, there has been an inordinate amount of crime prevention work carried out in our rural com-munities, and I am very pleased to report that well over 100 farms and rurally located business prem-ises have now been visited and had equipment and machinery 'tagged' with a product known as Smart-water which allows for identification of property if stolen and subsequently recovered by the police. Over the past month officers in Montrose and Bre-chin, assisted by their colleagues from the Road Po-licing Unit have been working together to implement the 'Get Ready For Winter' and 'Winter Safety Cam-paign' initiatives which are designed to educate and prepare motorists, ensuring that they and their vehi-cles are ready to meet the winter driving chal-lenges . It was most encouraging to note the continued high levels of satisfaction and confidence in the police being expressed by the public in general. My re-cently issued instruction to have officers issue con-tact cards to all members of the public with whom they have dealings should see this aspect of customer satisfaction improve yet further. I acknowledge that since the beginning of 2012 both Montrose and Brechin have experienced an in-crease in the number of vandalisms, but I am pleased to report that, as predicted last month, there is a notable reduction in the number of these com-plaints and associated youths calls, no doubt attrib-utable to the Community Officers and Special Con-stables who continue to engage with the people re-sponsible for such behaviour and encourage them to take part in the Friday Night Project as well as other diversionary activities. The Friday Night Project in particular has proved very popular, and was recently attended by over 80 youngsters.
(* Results should be viewed in conjunction with sample size. Changes in results may appear inflated due to the small number of respondents involved.)

Policing Angus: Community Summaries ~ April to November 2012
Regarding other concerns, such as drug abuse and problems with youths congregating, while I can con-firm that I have ongoing plans in place for officers to address these matters, I would take this opportunity to ask that all residents should ensure that any such problems are reported to Police without any un-due delay, so that an emerging problem can be ad-dressed quickly and effectively.’
SECTION 3: ARBROATH Main areas of public concern: drug dealing/drug abuse, speeding and youths causing annoyance & antisocial behaviour
CRIME Highlights
• All measures of recorded crime had either reduced or stayed the same. Overall, a 14.9% (or 116 crime) reduction for groups 1 to 4
PUBLIC PERCEPTION Highlights
• 84.6% of residents who responded to the survey thought that the crime rate in their neighbourhood had remained the same or improved over the past year—a significant 29.4 percentage point improvement on the 55.2% recorded at the same time last year.
• 20.0% of residents said they were con-cerned at becoming a victim of crime in their neighbourhood, a significant improvement of 34.1 percentage points on the result at the same time last year (54.1%)
TARGETED COMMUNITY ACTIVITY Inspector Adrian Robertson said: ‘Officers in Arbroath section have made a continued effort to reduce crime locally, by targeting known criminals, offering crime prevention advice to the community (via operation After Dark) and conducting proactive patrols. I am very pleased that these efforts have resulted in almost a 15% reduction in crime overall. In real terms, this means that there were 116 less crimes in the Arbroath area this year com-pared to last. It would appear that our communities are reassured by this reduction, given that 84.6% of people felt that crime had reduced or remained the same in their area, and significantly fewer local people
(34.1 percentage point reduction) felt they were likely to become a victim of crime. Crime has no place at any time of year; however I am aware of the potential impact it has on victims over the festive period. Therefore, I am delighted to see that vandalism, theft and break-ins are all in de-cline as we approach Christmas. Whilst I am bouyed up by these results, I remain committed to seeking further improvement for people in the Arbroath and Friockheim area, and all local police officers share this vision. Over the next month we will deliver our most visible festive policing campaign to date, focussing on en-suring that people intent on enjoying the festivities are able to do so in a safe environment. We will have more police officers on the streets during business hours to protect shops and shoppers, and during the evenings to patrol the local pubs, clubs and restau-rants. We will clamp down on alcohol misuse as it has been shown to contribute to violent crime and domestic abuse. We are committed to Operation Lynchpin, focussing on offering reassurance and support to the potential victims of domestic violence, and targeting known perpetrators of domestic crime. It is acknowledged that although violent crime locally has reduced by 39.3% this year, the festive season has the potential to see a rise in this type of crime, therefore we are ready to combat this possibility. The results show a 20 percentage point increase in our perceived visibility locally, and this reflects the efforts made in recent months to be seen in our com-munities. We are determined to continue to provide local people with a highly visible and approachable policing presence over the festive period and into 2013.
SECTION 4: CARNOUSTIE Main areas of public concern: speeding, youths causing annoyance , anti-social behaviour & dangerous driving CRIME Highlights
• Reduction of 31.0% in groups 1 to 4 (83 crimes) - best reduction across LPA
• Reduction of 37.4% in crimes of vandalism (49 crimes)
DETECTION RATE
21
Performance alert! • Deterioration in the detection rate for
groups 1 to 4 from 35.4 to 29.7% • Deterioration in the detection rate for van-
dalism from 34.4% to 23.2%
STANDARDS OF SERVICE Highlights
• Best results across LPA for measures relat-ing to updating the public and overall cus-tomer experience
PUBLIC PERCEPTION Highlights
• 8.5% of residents said they were concerned at becoming a victim of crime in their neighbourhood—best result across LPA—and a significant improvement on the 30.3% recorded at the same time last year.
TARGETED COMMUNITY ACTIVITY Inspector Fiona Jarrett said: I was again pleased to see that there was a reduc-tion in crimes across the section. Our main area of concern was rural thefts of diesel and tools but due to an increase in rural patrols and roadblocks we achieved good detections during November. These arrangements will be continued as a deterrent into the future. In the run up to Christmas, extra attention will be paid to residential areas as we are aware that many homes will contain a number of expensive items purchased as Christmas presents that would not be there, under normal circumstances. Officers will be offering crime prevention advice where necessary.
Standard of Service/ Public Perception We do aim to keep complainers up to date and my officers are instructed to contact complainers on a regular basis so they are aware of the enquiries we are carrying out in order to detect their crimes. The figures show that the section has the best overall customer experience figures and I will do all I can to ensure this is maintained.
We also have a very good record in the section for making our public feel safe. Only 8.5% of residents stated that they were concerned at becoming a vic-tim of crime compared to 30.3% at the same time last year.
SAFER COMMUNITIES November update TARGETED COMMUNITY ACTIVITY Sergeant Fergus Storrier said: ‘Highlights from the Community Safety Side from November include – The launch of Operation After Dark tied in with the Festive Policing plan to raise awareness about crime prevention issues for the public of Angus in-cluding leaflet drops in vulnerable areas. ‘Safe Drive Stay Alive’ is a multi partnership project which was run at the Reid Hall in Angus with hun-dreds of S5 and S6 pupils plus Angus College Stu-dents attending. The event delivered a hard hitting message about road safety to these age groups and potential young drivers. ‘The Monifieth Friday Night Project’ continued from the Community Cabin in Monifieth with Community Officer Sheena Melvin and other partners in atten-dance offering support to young people to keep them off the streets and engaged in positive activity. ‘Just Play’ is a partnership project between Tayside Police and Angus Council, and funded by Cashback for Communities, extends from Arbroath into Bre-chin and Forfar with a partnership awareness ses-sion taking place in Brechin. The project aims to in-troduce play into the lives of 0-3 year old children of risk-taking parents to support the children to develop more positive pathways.

KEY PERFORMANCE RESULTS: ANGUS LPA SCORECARD - STANDARDS OF SERVICE - APRIL to NOVEMBER 2012
Caution should be exercised when interpreting the results at sectional level due to the very small sub-sample sizes.
First Contact
- An improvement in satisfaction with service at first contact from 91.3% to 95.1%. This result exceeds the force target set at 94.0%.
- A reduction in identifying the person dealing with the enquiry from 84.8% to 82.1%.
Updating the Public
- A 10.9 percentage point improvement in updating the public from 59.2% to 70.1%, the highest result across the force. This result again exceeds the force target set at
65.0%.
When analysed by reason for contact - 85.5% of those who reported a crime were updated compared to 74.2% the previous year. A further improvement was also
evident in relation to those whose contact was for reasons other than to report a crime whereby 46.8% received an update compared to 43.5% in 2011.
Customer Experience
- Improvement in overall customer experience from 83.1% to 88.0%, the highest result across the force.

DETECTION RATE Highlight
• Improvement in the detection rate for groups 1 to 4 from 36.2% to 43.6%
• Crimes of dishonesty detection rate im-proved from 31.9% to 44.0%
TARGETED COMMUNITY ACTIVITY Inspector Julie Robertson said: ‘North and West Perthshire continues to be a low crime area therefore I would again highlight caution when interpreting percentage crime increases which can appear dramatic when we are dealing with such a small number of crimes. One area of concern from the figures is the increase in Domestic Housebreakings when compared with last year from 3 to 29. This increase was due to a series of break-ins to caravans in the Pitlochry and Dunkeld areas earlier this year. The culprit for those break-ins was arrested and a report submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.
27
Policing Perth & Kinross: Community Summaries ~ April to November 2012
Although our detection rate for Housebreakings has gone up to 75.9% we cannot become complacent and to that end I ensure section supervisors review these crimes in order to identify all possible lines of enquiry are carried out taking every opportunity for detections. Furthermore I have ensured dedicated resources using special constables in conjunction with section officers and officers from Central Scot-land Police, to coordinate our activities in proactively patrolling our rural roads. The objective is to disrupt and deter criminal movement, whilst providing public reassurance. This activity will continue over the fes-tive period. Although group 1 – 4 crimes show a significant in-crease of 44.8% this is due mainly to the rise in group 2 and 3 crimes, (indecencies – many of which were historical, and dishonesties) although we have improved detection rates for these crimes, 68.4% and 44% respectively (a substantial increase). This has consequently impacted on the overall detection rates for Group 1 – 4 crimes from 36.2 % to 43.6% with the most noticeable increased detections being in relation to crimes of dishonesties (over 12 percent-age points from previous month). I am also very pleased to see officers continue to fo-cus on providing a good quality of service to the pub-lic which is reflected in the excellent overall satisfac-tion rating of 90.0%, given by our customers.’

C orporate support forms an important role in ensuring that appropriate resources are in place to deliver an efficient
and effective service to the public. The challenging economic climate means that robust monitor-ing and reporting processes are instrumental in ensuring that the force is on track to deliver its objectives within available re-sources . At the same time, the Scottish Government has set stretching environmental and energy reduction targets for Scotland. As a major employer in Tayside, Tayside Police is committed to demonstrating its contribution to this aim.

RANDOM DRUG TESTING A programme of testing of both police officers and police staff is carried out. This supports the prevention and management of substance misuse within Tayside Police in order to create and maintain healthy staff and enhance public trust in services delivered by the Force. This pro-gramme does not prevent staff reporting concerns about suspected illegal activity by col-leagues, which is acted upon.
