  • Article the Surveillance Dimensions of the Use of Social Media by UK Police Forces
    The Surveillance Dimensions of the Use of Article Social Media by UK Police Forces Elena M. Egawhary Columbia University, USA [email protected] Abstract This paper explores the various surveillance practices involved in the use of social media for communication and investigation purposes by UK police forces. In doing so, it analyses internal policy documents and official guidance obtained through freedom of information (FOI) requests sent to 46 police forces in the United Kingdom. This analysis finds that UK police forces advise their staff to simultaneously engage in both surveillance and counter-surveillance strategies in their use of social media as a policing tool. Introduction The use of social media by UK police forces falls into two broad categories: communication (or engagement) and investigation (or operational use). UK police forces began registering corporate accounts on Twitter and Facebook for communication purposes for the first time in 2008. However, UK police forces’ use of the internet for investigative purposes dates back to April 2001 with the creation of the National Hi-Tech Crime Unit (NHTCU) to “investigate attacks on the Critical National Infrastructure; major internet based offences of paedophilia, fraud or extortion; information from seized electronic media and gather intelligence on cybercrime and cybercriminals” (Corbitt 2001: 29). Prior to 2001, most of the responsibility for using social networking sites to investigate crime fell to a small number of digital evidence recovery officers who were “swamped and learning on the job” (Thomas 2005) resulting in a reportedly “huge workload” (Goodwin 2005). This suggests that the use of social media in UK policing began in an unstructured way and “on the basis of initiatives by individual officers and subsequently with varying degrees of official support” (Crump 2011: 1).

  • The Hard Yards
    PEEL spotlight report The Hard Yards Police-to-police collaboration Contents Foreword 1 About this report 3 Summary of findings 5 Are current police collaboration agreements fit for today’s policing? 8 Recommendations 10 Themes 12 Purpose 12 Benefits and cost analysis 15 Leadership and governance 17 Skills and capabilities 19 Conclusion 21 Annex A: The scale of police-to-police collaborations 22 i Foreword Nationally, forces are spending over a quarter of a billion pounds on collaborations every year. It is in police forces’ interests to collaborate with other forces and other organisations, both on a local and a national scale. Collaboration done well can save money, reduce bureaucracy, and improve efficiency and effectiveness. Collaborations allow forces to club together to provide specialist services that they couldn’t provide individually, and they help forces to learn from best practice. Ultimately, collaborations can improve the service that forces give to the public. But too many police collaborations are failing, or not giving the results they should, costing forces money, time and effort. For this report, we assessed six police collaborations, investigating the process from agreement onwards. These case studies varied in scope and scale from highly ambitious strategic collaborations, such as the Seven Force Strategic Alliance (7F) and the All Wales collaboration, to more focused and specific projects, such as the North West Underwater Marine Unit. We examined what they did well, and what didn’t go so well. We considered why some collaborations succeeded and why some failed. Too many forces weren’t well informed about collaboration best practice: there wasn’t enough information available nationally about police collaboration; and some forces didn’t use the lessons they learned on one collaboration to improve others they were involved with.

For requests submitted by the same applicant these can be aggregated together for cost purposes. For any force where Section 12 is relevant we are happy for you to issue a refusal notice and provide an explanation as to why cost is relevant. However, if a request just relates to comms data (e.g. case no 1440/14) there is no harm in including the number of RIPA applications that would require a manual search as the total number of comms data only by force has been disclosed previously and is published. With regard to requests asking for ALL RIPA APPLICATIONS, if it relates to several years of information, we can see no harm in stating how many RIPA applications you would have to search through in that time period for excess costs to apply. However, care should be taken for any requests which are asking for annualised financial year information for ALL RIPA requests which includes, comms data; directed surveillance and intrusive surveillance *************************************************************************** **************S31(1)(a)(b) within your explanation as to why cost is a factor.
