Request
I am writing to request information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 on the amount of “screened out” crimes within 24 hours of being reported for the following calendar years: 2019, 2020, 2021 and to date (1st February 2022)
Please can you provide me for each calendar year:
Request 1
The total number of crimes that have been “screened out” for further investigation or ‘filed’ shortly after it was reported to the police.
These are cases which do not qualify for investigation after an initial screening process. This also includes reported crimes closed within 24 hours, without a police officer being assigned to it. Please break this information down into individual offence as per the Count Offence Classification Index.
Request 2
Please can you provide me with the total number of crimes reported to your force for the calendar years 2019, 2020, 2021 and to date (1st February 2022). Please break this information down into individual offence as per the Count Offence Classification Index.
