Crime levels in Jersey continue to remain low compared with elsewhere and, in 2005, crime fell further compared with 2004 and the three-year average. This is to a large extent due to the exceptional efforts of the men and women of the Force and the strong support we receive from the public. In addition to normal operations in 2005 the force policed a number of major events. The most significant was the visit of Her Majesty the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh to attend the 60th Anniversary celebrations of the Liberation. The visit posed major operational challenges, including crowd control, transport and not least of all the significant security arrangements now required for events of this nature. The operation involved the full mobilisation of both the States and Honorary Police, and it is to the credit of all concerned that fewer than 20 officers from the U.K. were needed to supplement operations on the day. While this report describes low and falling levels of crime we should not become complacent. The island continues to be a target for criminal organisations based in the U.K. and elsewhere. It is likely that this, and Jerseys strong alcohol culture will continue to present challenges in the year ahead. I hope we will continue to benefit from the help and support of islanders, whether in the reporting of suspicious activity, appearing as witnesses, or by offering their voluntary support through bodies such as Crimestoppers, People Against Crime, Victim Support, or the Honorary Police. By working together as a community we can all play our part in Making Jersey Safer. Graham Power Chief Officer February 2006 AT A GLANCE There were 59.7 crimes per 1,000 population in Jersey during 2005. The comparative figure for England and Wales is 112.7 Crime in Jersey during 2005 fell by 3% compared with the three-year average for 2002-04. The crime detection rate in Jersey averages 38 - 40%. The comparative figure for England and Wales is 26% The sanction detection rate (where an offender is dealt with by the criminal justice system) in Jersey is 31%. The comparative figure for England and Wales is 21% There are about 6.7 domestic burglaries per 1,000 households in Jersey compared with a England and Wales average of 15.6 Page 3 EXPLANATORY NOTES 1. This report sets out the progress made by States of Jersey Police in 2005 in delivering the programme of initiatives prescribed by the 2005 Policing Plan and provides a detailed breakdown of offences recorded by the States of Jersey Police during 2004. 2. Policing performance in any one year is best understood in the context of what has gone before, the environment in which the Force is operating and the operational objectives it has set in its Policing Plan for the year in question. Where appropriate, key performance results are prefaced by a brief summary of some of the key issues highlighted in the 2004 Annual Report and the 2005 Policing Plan under the heading ‘Key Challenges Predicted for 2005’. 3. Where possible, key performance indicators are Figure 1: Example - 1 and 3-year comparisons measured against a three-year average from 2002 to 2004 and also the figures for 2004. The 100 three-year average provides the most reliable 90 indicator of performance as it takes into account the peaks and troughs in activity that can affect 80 a simple year-on-year comparison. Figure 1 70 provides an example of this principle in action. A simple comparison between 2004 and 2005 60 would suggest that crime has increased by 50 10%. This would fail to recognize that the 2002 2003 2004 2005 figures in 2004 were particularly low and those for 2005 remain 17.5% lower than the average for 2002-04 and represent a downward trend in the occurrence of this particular offence. 4. A traffic light system is used to highlight performance against the three-year average for each key performance indicator. A green light identifies that a positive result has been achieved, a yellow highlight indicates concerns about progress and a red highlights that desired results have not been achieved or performance data shows a significant decline. 5. The recording practices used to record crime and detection rates in Jersey are consistent with those prescribed by the Home Office for Police Forces in England and Wales and have been audited by Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary. Page 4 KEY PERFORMANCE OUTCOMES What does successful policing look like? The 2005 Policing Plan identified these key performance outcomes against which our performance in delivering effective policing services and making optimum use of our human and financial resources can be judged. Progress against each of these measures can be reviewed by using the page references set out below.

Results in 2005 The overall number of crimes recorded by the States of Jersey Police in 2005 was 5,2352. This represents – • AT A GLANCE a fall of 6.3% compared with 2004, and; In six of Jersey’s 12 • a 3% reduction compared with the three-year average for parishes, there was an 2002-04. average of less than two crimes per week in 2005. The standard measure used to benchmark crime levels between different jurisdictions is the number of recorded crimes per 1,000 population. The most recent figures published for England and Wales show an average crime rate of 112.7 crimes per 1,000 population in 2004/05. By comparison, there were 59.7 crimes per 1,000 population in Jersey during 20053. The overall level of recorded crime is traditionally regarded as the basic measure of policing performance in protecting community safety. Taken at face value, however, headline figures can be misleading and it is worth considering some of these factors – • Many crimes, particularly those of a minor nature, will always go unreported.4 As the Police can only record those offences of which they are made aware, this can have an important bearing on official crime figures. A comparison between the findings of the British and Jersey Crime Surveys shows that the public are more likely to report crime in Jersey than in the United Kingdom. The Island therefore enjoys lower levels of crime despite a higher reporting rate. • An illegal drugs market will exist in any community, with many people committing a variety of drug offences every day. Most of these crimes remain hidden unless they are detected and recorded by the Police. The more successful the Police are at investigating and disrupting local drug networks, the more crimes will be recorded. This can give the erroneous impression that overall crime is on the increase. Crime levels in Jersey are low in spite of our record in detecting more drugs offences than comparable jurisdictions. 2.6% of all recorded crimes in England and Wales are drug offences compared with 5.1% in Jersey. 2 Both States and Honorary Police Officers use the central crime recording system maintained by States of Jersey Police.

  • R.76/2021 the Island Identity Policy Development Board Jersey’S National and International Identity
    R.76/2021 The Island Identity Policy Development Board Jersey’s National and International Identity Interim Findings Report 1 Foreword Avant-propos What makes Jersey special and why does that matter? Those simple questions, each leading on to a vast web of intriguing, inspiring and challenging answers, underpin the creation of this report on Jersey’s identity and how it should be understood in today’s world, both in the Island and internationally. The Island Identity Policy Development Board is proposing for consideration a comprehensive programme of ways in which the Island’s distinctive qualities can be recognised afresh, protected and celebrated. It is the board’s belief that success in this aim must start with a much wider, more confident understanding that Jersey’s unique mixture of cultural and constitutional characteristics qualifies it as an Island nation in its own right. An enhanced sense of national identity will have many social and cultural benefits and reinforce Jersey’s remarkable community spirit, while a simultaneously enhanced international identity will protect its economic interests and lead to new opportunities. What does it mean to be Jersey in the 21st century? The complexity involved in providing any kind of answer to this question tells of an Island full of intricacy, nuance and multiplicity. Jersey is bursting with stories to tell. But none of these stories alone can tell us what it means to be Jersey. In light of all this complexity why take the time, at this moment, to investigate the different threads of what it means to be Jersey? I would, at the highest level, like to offer four main reasons: First, there is a profound and almost universally shared sense that what we have in Jersey is special.

  • Independent Jersey Police Authority: Establishment
    STATES OF JERSEY INDEPENDENT JERSEY POLICE AUTHORITY: ESTABLISHMENT Lodged au Greffe on 2nd March 2010 by Senator A. Breckon STATES GREFFE 2010 Price code: C P.23 PROPOSITION THE STATES are asked to decide whether they are of opinion −−− to refer to their Act dated 19th May 1998 approving the establishment by law of a Police Authority, and – to request the Minister for Home Affairs to present to the States for approval no later than December 2010 detailed proposals for the establishment of an Independent Jersey Police Authority to oversee the work of the States of Jersey Police. SENATOR A. BRECKON Page - 2 P.23/2010 REPORT I have highlighted and set out in this Report the background to this sorry saga of doing nothing. I say this because I believe that not having a Jersey Police Authority (JPA) has cost us many millions of pounds to date and left the States of Jersey Police in a position where, to me, it is unclear exactly who they are accountable to and how? This situation can NOT be allowed to go on forever without any sign of action! I should declare an interest in that a few years ago I was a Member of a “Shadow Police Authority” as a (then) Member of the Home Affairs Committee, along with the Constable of St. Ouen, Ken Vibert. I wish to add, and place on the public record, that the voluntary Chairman at that time was Mr. (former Deputy) Robin Rumboll, and he did some sterling work in trying to put a structure and people, in place, virtually on his own, without an officer for most of the time.

We are always looking for help with the float, so please feel free to com to the shed to meet us and join in.” But there is a lot of hard work behind the float as La Baguette found out. Planning for the Battle of Flowers begins early. During November 2011, the St Brelade’s Battle of Flowers Association met to discuss ideas for the design of the float for the 2012 Battle of Flowers. By December, Shangri-La was chosen, and materials ordered for the framework. By May 2012, the framework is mostly in place, built around the chassis of a refuse lorry. Hares tails were being glued to separated sections, and underlying frame painted. With suitable music chosen, the trained dancers begin rehearsing their routines. But the big rush comes in the four nights before the Battle itself, when many volunteers young and old arrive and 130,000 heads are glued to the float together with 80 kilos of hares tails. The Chairman of the Association, Michael Jandron, gets an early night around 10.30 on ON Saturday, the Acappela Brass Band There was also plenty of tasty food to the eve before the Battle.

Similarly, the impact of such abuse upon the lives of the children living in such environments cannot be underestimated. Reports of domestic abuse are increasing in Jersey and we must ensure that victims and their families are able to access the services they need, when they need them and at the earliest opportunity. We must provide coordinated services for the perpetrators of abuse to help stop the cycle of violence and we must help young people to understand what a healthy relationship is and to fully explain what is meant by controlling behaviour, violence, abuse and consent.
