Decision title: Collaboration between Thames Valley Violence Reduction Unit (Thames Valley Police), Hampshire Constabulary and Hampshire’s Violence Reduction Unit to advance data capabilities to support and Community Safety Partnerships across the South East region Requester details: Requester: Anja Kimberley Role title: Head of Performance and Information 1 Summary The Police and Crime Commissioner (P C C) supported partnership information sharing and evidence requirements through the provision of InterACT. This platform now supports other South East community safety partnerships, including Thames Valley Together. Thames Valley’s Violence reduction unit have heavily invested in a pioneering analytics project, accessing live data to increase the capabilities of visualisation products, including machine learning. This paper recommends development support through an upskilling programme that will enable Hampshire Constabulary and the O P C C to collaborate and accelerate collective digital ambitions. v2.0 dated 16-Mar-21 Page 1 DECISION REQUEST Decision I D: P C C M L 000608 2021 The costs proposed satisfy the requirements for skills, software, and access to information, processing and management time to capitalise on partnership relations and effective supply of shared data. In doing so, the successful information sharing platform will further contribute to a rich evidence base in support of collaborative problem solving. It currently enables timely and accurate provision of evidence to meet a range of needs, including thematic national funding opportunities for the Hampshire policing area. Thames Valley Police have so far invested around £400,000 into their analytics programme, confronting technical obstacles, designing and imbedding programmes and processes to leverage opportunities in data access. This work included the employment of a full time data engineer to establish the data architecture. The final step that that this paper recommends a contribution towards enables development of the end-to-end pipeline that will support data visualisation and InterACT. The recommendations presented will secure a step-change in capability, introducing an ability for existing data experts to access new technology providing flexible data access across the Constabulary and in collaboration with Thames Valley Police. 2 Recommendation That the Police and Crime Commissioner approves funding of £51,532 for the financial year 2021/22 from the Commissioner’s Reserve to be given to Thames Valley Police to support the: Analytical upskilling is required to access the data architecture across partnerships. A contribution is recommended to enable a joint, pioneering capability to create automated identification of risk and opportunities for prevention, bringing together council and police data. A model, provided by consultancy firm Simpsons to be implemented, connecting data architecture to visualisation products supporting Violence Reduction Units and Community Safety Partnerships. That the authority is delegated to the Head of Strategic Commissioning and Partnerships to agree the terms of the funding agreement. 3 Strategic context InterACT has developed using some outdated methodologies due to the nature of police and partner databases. Emerging technology presents a challenge and opportunity to access live data and combine information. It is physically possible to apply machine learning to alert users of risk v2.0 dated 16-Mar-21 Page 2 DECISION REQUEST Decision I D: P C C M L 000608 2021 areas, however the upskilling of analysts in conjunction with organisational objectives, enhanced communication between organisations and confidence in governance is essential to begin to exploit new technological capabilities. Thames Valley Police have secured £70,000, in addition to a spend of around £400k over two years to deliver a programme that will allow analysts to obtain the computer science skills necessary to manage more flexible ‘unstructured’ data, providing live insights that traditional analysis is not reasonably able to achieve. Hampshire Constabulary have the opportunity to collaborate and have secured £50,000 from Covid-related funding towards this crucial stage in reaching the next generation of I T capability in policing data. This will support intelligence management at an individual level, and further progress the InterACT objective of combining partnership information to identify opportunity to protect the public led by population level indicators of risk. InterACT is the information mechanism that supports the Hampshire Violence Reduction unit, it is also undergoing replication to support Thames Valley Police Community Safety Partners. This collaboration enables all areas of work to develop under a united governance framework, ensuring that progress across all organisations is a collective effort to unite our data networks. This contribution supports the Hampshire rollout of a two-year project between Thames Valley Police and Microsoft, enabling a cloud based approach to data access. This money, by means of a funding agreement, will specifically contribute to a model to connect the data architecture to tools including data visualisation that enable machine learning, and to upskill staff to maintain and develop the products. The prosed senior stakeholder group includes a representative from Hampshire’s Violence Reduction Unit within the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner (O P C C) and have an option to oversee areas of technical development. Thames Valley Police have themselves invested £400k and have developed the information governance, security and assurance for the project, this included the provision of a full time data engineer and development of the data architecture. The benefits for InterACT include: An ability to analyse big data, using machine learning to identify risk and assimilate patterns and trends, supporting the ambition of a public health approach and supporting the V R U. A governance structure that allows all sharable products produced by Thames Valley Police and Hampshire Constabulary to be included in InterACT. v2.0 dated 16-Mar-21 Page 3 DECISION REQUEST Decision I D: P C C M L 000608 2021 An opportunity to measure whole system costs by organisation, by unit. For example the cost in demand created by a crime. In information sharing opportunity to reduce

  • Tackling Vehicle Crime in Portsmouth, England Operation Cobra
    TACKLING VEHICLE CRIME IN PORTSMOUTH, ENGLAND OPERATION COBRA HAMPSHIRE CONSTABULARY, PORTSMOUTH BASIC COMMAND UNIT, 2004 THE PROBLEM: From April 2002 to March 2003, vehicle crime in Portsmouth, England increased 16 percent. Strategies in place, much of it focused on offender detection and generic crime prevention, were not working. A Crime Reduction Officer/Analyst reviewed 9 months of data (in the past only several weeks were reviewed at a time to determine patterns) uncovering more robust patterns: 1989 to 1998 vehicles were the most at risk, items stolen did not have property markings so resale was easy, vehicle crime concentrated in many repeat locations, in fact 49 percent of vehicle crimes occurred in just 167 of Portsmouth’s 1,600 streets. ANALYSIS: The Crime Reduction Officer/Analyst identified eight underlying conditions contributing to the high level of vehicle crimes. These conditions if turned around could significantly reduce vehicle crime in Portsmouth. RESPONSE: Engaging a wide variety of partners, including the media, the group developed Operation Cobra. It relied on a graded or tiered approach to reducing auto theft; different strategies were applied depending upon the level of vehicle crime on a street. Streets with 5 to 7 vehicle crimes used a victim-focused strategy (such as customized warnings and property marking). Those with 8 to 10 vehicle crimes focused on victims but incorporated environmental and situational changes to the location. Streets with 11 or more vehicle crimes focused on victim and location but also

  • 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 key issue was whether the use of a syringe driver to deliver Diamorphine to Mrs. Richards was carded out in such a way as to cause her unlawful death. A critical meeting took place on 19t" June, 2001 between Detective Superintendent John James, Detective Chief Inspector Paul Clarke, the Crown Prosecution Case Worker, Mr. Paul C|ose, Treasury Counsel, and Professor/ivesley. It would appear that during that meeting Treasury Counsel came to the view that Professor Livesley’s report on the medical aspects of this case and his assertions that Mrs. Richards had been unlawfully killed, were flawed in respect of his analysis of the law. The best summary of the meeting is contained in a letter from Mr.

  • Hmic Report: Strategic Policing Requirement
    HMIC REPORT: STRATEGIC POLICING REQUIREMENT PCC Anthony Stansfeld’s interim comment on HMIC’s Strategic Policing Requirement (SPR) inspection: “This inspection reports on the arrangements that all police forces should have in place to meet the SPR. Chief Constables must have regard to this and it is the role of PCCs to hold them account for doing so. The specific national threats set down in the SPR are: terrorism, civil emergencies, organised crime, public order threats and large-scale cyber incidents. The SPR also outlines the national required policing response to counter these threats by ensuring forces have the capacity, capability and collaborative arrangements in place to deliver against these threats. In their national report, HMIC provides assurance that chief constables are having regard to the SPR, but identifies that much more needs to be done by forces to secure the levels of preparedness that are necessary for them to collectively respond to all of the national threats. Thames Valley Police were not one of the 18 Forces directly inspected as part of the inspection process, although the Force is cited in various sections of the report: TVP is one of 14 forces that were found to have at least twice the number of trained Public Support Units (PSU) assessed as necessary to meet their local threat. However, the report is content with TVP’s numbers because ‘their national requirement for PSUs is greater than their local threat and they have resourced to their national requirement’. A comparison of Forces that were deemed either Mutual Aid ‘recipients or providers’ for 2011/12 and 2012/13 were undertaken.
