Unit 12-Crime and its effect on society Marcus ChadwickAssignment 4
P4,M3,D2
Approaches to reduce crime, disorder and anti-social behaviour.
Crime occurs all over the country however some areas have more crime than others due to many
factors so it is important that the public service have strategies to reduce crime, disorder and anti-
social behaviour so that communities are safer. Crimes are recorded through a standardised system
so that that police can create crime statistics and patterns across the country which allows police to
come up with strategies to prevent crime in certain areas.
Intelligence led policing
The national intelligence model is a code of practise which was brought into operation in January
2005. This model allows police to classify and store information so that it can be used by the forces.
It is mainly used to allocate work and plan to the police so that they can operate within a community
to reduce risks and increase performance. Senior officers are given opportunity to set up cross force
coordination meetings regularly to discuss the high crime areas so that intelligence can be gathered
to ensure these areas are lowering in crime rates
Identification of crime trends
Intelligence led policing is key to the NIM strategy as collecting data allows the police to spot trends
in crime in certain areas in which they can then respond to preventing further crime. However it was
said that more time was recording time than actually trying to catch offenders.
Targeting of prolific and priority offenders
Police can target offenders using surveillance, in-formats and intelligence. The data of crime they
collect could be the type of crime, where the crime was and what time which could give the police a
clue on who may have committed the crime by spotting a trend. This can also give the police an idea
on how to prevent this from occurring again by patrolling the area at a certain time.
Creating problem solving policing initiatives
To ensure crime is tackled and the crime reduction is effective, the NIM is split into 3 levels
Level 1
Level 1 is local crime and anti-social behaviour which only affects a small area or small part of the
force. These crimes can be as small as theft but as big as murder.
Level 2
This is where the crime goes to a bigger scale and affects regions. This calls for more than one force
to join together to tackle the crime.
Level 3
Level 3 crime is usually the most serious cases of crime which affect nationally and internationally.
This is level 3 because target operations and dedicated units must be assigned to prevent any further
crime. Level 3 would be the Manchester bombings where 22 people died from a suicide bomber.
