Public Consultation
In line with the five priority areas for tackling crime and creating safer communities the public survey asked four core questions: 1. Is there anything I might have missed in the list of draft priority areas provided that you would like to see included? 2. What if anything would you like the police to do differently? 3. If you have been a victim of crime, how do you feel you were treated by the Constabulary? 4. As a victim of crime, did the support services you accessed meet your needs? The questions were deliberately broad and open, and required free text responses and therefore qualitative analysis could be undertaken on the responses. There was strong support for the five themes in the consultation. The key themes from this survey, in relation to what, if anything, the public would like the police to do differently and priority areas, are shown below.
