Crime and Disorder Audits

HC Deb 06 February 2001 vol 362 cc501-2W

Mr. Kidney

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department when the next round of crime and disorder audits will be undertaken. [148420]

Mr. Charles Clarke

The Crime and Disorder Act 1998 requires that crime and disorder strategies are formulated and implemented for a period of three years and each subsequent period of three years. The implementation date for the next set of strategies is March 2002 and crime and disorder partnerships are beginning to undertake audits in order to formulate their strategies by that date.
