5 results foundAuthor: Norris, Paul Title: Comparability of the Crime Surveys in the UK: A Comparison of Victimisation and Technical Details Summary: The ability to compare crime rates using recorded offenses is limited because crimes are defined and recorded in different ways across the different jurisdictions within the UK. The population of the UK is covered by three separate crime surveys; the British Crime Survey which covers England and Wales; the Scottish Crime Survey and the Northern Ireland Crime Survey. This paper aims to map differences between the three surveys which may influence the estimates of victimization. Details: Edinburgh: Scottish Centre for Criminal and Justice Research, 2010. 35p.

Author: Scribbins, Matthew (Ed.) Title: Public Perceptions of Policing, Engagement with the Police and Victimisation: Findings from the 2009-210 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 2009/10. 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 victimisation survey of approximately 46,000 adults resident in households in England and Wales. Since 2001/02 the BCS has run continuously with interviewing being carried out throughout the year. Adults aged 16 and over are asked about their experiences of crime-related incidents in the 12 months prior to interview. BCS respondents are also asked about their attitudes towards different crime-related issues such as the police, criminal justice system, perceptions of crime and anti-social behaviour. This bulletin presents findings from additional analyses on public perceptions of policing, people's engagement with the police and their perceptions of the likelihood of becoming a victim of crime, based on the 2009/10 BCS.

Author: Great Britain. Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Constabulary Title: Anti-social Behaviour: Inspection Findings Summary: In Spring 2010, Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) carried out a review of anti-social behaviour (ASB) in England and Wales. This included asking victims about their experience of reporting ASB to the police, and inspecting the quality of the processes that forces use in tackling and responding to the problem. Working with the Police Science Institute at Cardiff University, we then used the results to answer the question of how the police can best tackle ASB.

Author: Thornton, Alex Title: Commercial Victimisation Survey 2012: Feasibility Report Summary: The 2012 Commercial Victimisation Survey (CVS) is the first of a new series of surveys run by the Home Office, designed to measure crime against businesses in England and Wales. This new series, currently scheduled to run in 2012, 2013 and 2014, builds on the two previous Home Office CVS surveys carried out in 1994 and 2002. Both previous surveys were limited to small and medium sized businesses in the retail and manufacturing sectors with interviews carried out by telephone. The two surveys are regarded as among the most comprehensive studies of crime against business in England and Wales measuring crime at premises rather than enterprise level1. The 2002 CVS also included a smaller postal survey of head offices (primarily to collect information about the financial impacts of crime) although, due to a very low response rate, data from this was not included in the 2002 report. In 2012 it was agreed that the CVS would focus on data at the premises level, collecting information on experience and costs of crime, responses to victimisation, insurance and crime prevention measures, local policing and business characteristics. Compared with previous CVS surveys, the 2012 survey was widened to cover four business areas; retail, manufacturing, the service sector and transport and distribution. The 2012 survey would again be conducted through telephone interviews. This report provides a summary of various stages of feasibility work carried out by TNS BMRB between April and July 2012. Work was carried out to develop the survey methodology and questionnaire for the 2012 CVS and consisted of three main stages: 1) A comprehensive review of the CVS sample design. This included making a recommendation of the survey population, obtaining the most accurate business population counts, and developing a process for looking up telephone numbers for sampled premises 2) Cognitive interviews with respondents at a range of individual business premises to fully test the draft questionnaire 3) A robust dress rehearsal of 100 interviews designed to test comprehensively all aspects of the survey processes. This provided an opportunity to test the questionnaire produced from the feasibility study and amend it prior to the main stage survey. The report is divided into the three sections outlined above. In addition to these three stages, a stakeholder workshop was carried out on 19th June with members of the CVS Steering Group and Virtual Reference Group. The purpose of the workshop was to discuss emerging findings from the early stages of the feasibility work with key stakeholders from outside the Home Office research team.

Author: Thornton, Alex Title: Commercial Victimisation Survey 2013: Technical Report Summary: The 2013 Commercial Victimisation Survey (CVS) is the second in a new series of surveys run by the Home Office, designed to measure crime against businesses in England and Wales. This new series, running in 2012, 2013 and 2014, builds on the two previous Home Office CVS surveys carried out in 1994 and 2002. In the 2012 to 2014 series it was agreed that the CVS would focus on data at the premises level, collecting information on experience and costs of crime, responses to victimisation, insurance and crime prevention measures, local policing and business characteristics. As with the 2012 CVS survey, the 2013 survey was carried out by telephone and covered four business areas; wholesale and retail, and accommodation and food were retained from the 2012 survey, whilst agriculture, forestry and fishing, and arts, entertainment and recreation were new sectors for 2013. The manufacturing, and transportation and storage sectors were included in 2012 but were not retained for the 2013 survey. The survey fills an important gap in crime statistics on the nature and extent of crime against businesses. Details: London: Home Office, 2014. 206p.
