Previously published annual bulletins
Caution should be taken when comparing crime from these time periods with figures from more recent years, particularly figures reported before and after April 1998. This is due to changes and improvements in crime recording practices and systems over time, and also changes in crime classifications and categories.
Further information on the changes and improvements in recording practices, systems and classifications can be found in the Police recorded crime statistics user guide (PDF, 864 KB)

Since then, reports have been based on financial years (April to March). Scanned images of the relevant crime tables from these reports, dating from 1968 until 2001/02. have been made available via the links below.
