Author: Moon, Debbie Title: Perceptions of crime, engagement with the police, authorities dealing with anti-social behaviour and Community Payback: Findings from the 2010/11 British Crime Survey Summary: This bulletin is the first in a series of supplementary volumes that accompany the main annual Home Office Statistical Bulletin, ‘Crime in England and Wales 2010/11’ (Chaplin et al., 2011). These supplementary volumes report on additional analysis not included in the main annual publication. Figures included in this bulletin are from the British Crime Survey (BCS), a large, nationally representative, face-to-face victimisation survey in which people resident in households in England and Wales are asked about their experiences of crime in the 12 months prior to interview. Since 2001/02 the BCS has run continuously with interviewing being carried out throughout the year. Until recently the BCS did not cover crimes against those aged under 16, but since January 2009 interviews have been carried out with children aged 10 to 15. BCS respondents are also asked about their attitudes towards different crime-related issues such as the police and criminal justice system, and about their perceptions of crime and anti-social behaviour. BCS figures in the main body of this report are limited to adults aged over 16 as in previous years, but experimental statistics for children are shown separately in Chapter 1. This bulletin presents findings from additional analyses based on the 2010/11 BCS on people’s contact and engagement with the police, their views of how the authorities in the local area are dealing with anti-social behaviour, their awareness and perceptions of Community Payback and their perceptions of crime.

Author: Botcherby, Sue Title: Equality groups' perceptions and experience of crime: Analysis of the British Crime Survey 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 Summary: The Equality Act 2010 introduces a new equality duty requiring public authorities to show due regard to the need to eliminate unlawful discrimination, harassment and victimisation; advance equality and foster good relations across all the protected characteristics. The Act defines harassment as ‘unwanted conduct related to a relevant protected characteristic’ which violates a person’s dignity or creates ‘an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment’. This briefing uses British Crime Survey (BCS) data to understand the different equality groups’ expectations about being insulted and their experience of intimidation, threats, violence and crime. It also analyses the experience and reporting of hate crime, that is, crime motivated by the offender’s attitudes to the victim’s age, gender, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation or disability compared to other crime not motivated by prejudice. The briefing finds that there is widespread expectation of being insulted or intimidated in public places amongst most minority equality groups. Younger age groups, men, and lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) respondents are more likely to report being a victim of crime, and experiencing threats or deliberate use of violence than older age groups, women and heterosexual respondents. Ethnic minority groups are more likely than White groups to report being a victim of crime, but the Mixed and White groups are most likely to experience violence. People over sixty, ethnic minority groups and LGB respondents are most likely to report experiencing crime motivated by the offender’s attitude to their identity. Victims of hate crime are more likely to inform police of such incidents than victims of otherwise motivated crimes.

Author: Grace, Kerry Title: Public Annoyance and Complaints about the Police: findings from the 2006/07 British Crime Survey Summary: This study examines the results from the questions that form part of the ‘Experience of the police; attitudes to the police’ module in the British Crime Survey (BCS). This focuses on the respondents’ interactions and perceptions of the police and includes a number of questions around ‘annoyance’ with, and complaining about the police. Past studies looking at these issues tend to be dated or focus on people’s attitudes to complaining rather than their experiences. This study sheds new light on this area by examining up to date, actual experiences of members of the public. The main focus of the research report is primary analysis of the 2006/07 BCS. A statistical technique called ‘logistic regression’ was also used. This indicates what characteristics are more likely to exhibit a certain outcome to provide further insight into the factors associated with annoyance and complaining about the police. In addition, there is a short trend analysis of the BCS data between 2001/02 and 2006/07 to explore changes in responses, including a look at changes by ethnic group over the six year period. The study explores the respondents’ demographics, lifestyle, attitudes towards the police and contact with the police. The aim of the study was to inform thinking about the public’s use of the police complaints system and to specifically look at three issues: The first of these concerned the extent to which members of the public have felt ‘really annoyed’ about the behaviour of a police officer and if they have decided to make a complaint; The second concerned why people do not complain after such an experience and whether awareness of how to make a complaint and other access issues have a significant role in a complaint being made; The third concerned the experiences of those who did make a complaint and specifically whether they were satisfied with the way their complaint was handled.

Author: Jansson, Krista Title: British Crime Survey - Measuring crime for 25 years Summary: The first British Crime Survey (BCS) was carried out in 1982, collecting information about people's experiences of crime in 1981. The British Crime Survey (BCS) is therefore celebrating its 25th anniversary. This booklet examines how the BCS has changed and what has happened to trends in crime and people's perceptions about crime over the last 25 years. What is the British Crime Survey? The BCS is a victimisation survey. It measures the amount of crime in England and Wales by asking people about crimes they have experienced in the previous year. It is also an important source of information about other topics, such as attitudes towards the criminal justice system and perceptions of anti-social behaviour. The police recorded crime figures also provide a measure of crime in England and Wales. The BCS and police recorded crimes are complementary series that together provide a better picture of crime than could be obtained from either series alone. For the crime types it covers, the BCS can provide a better reflection of the true extent of crime because it includes crimes that are not reported to the police. The BCS count also gives a better indication of trends in crime over time because it is unaffected by changes in levels of public reporting and police recording. Police statistics provide a good measure of trends in some less frequent but serious crimes as well as well-reported crimes. They are also an important indicator of police workload and can be used for local crime pattern analysis. Details: London: Home Office, 2007. 33p.
