FOI Reference: 208/2024

Request:

By month from Jan 2015 to the latest full month available:

Crime investigations closed, broken down by offence category and subcategory and by investigation outcome.
Domestic abuse flagged crime investigations closed, broken down by offence category and subcategory and by investigation outcome.

Clarification: I am specifically interested in grouping by the date that the investigation was closed/ an outcome was recorded rather than when the crime was first reported.

My understanding is that a Domestic Abuse flag is applied to the record separately to the primary offence and am aware that there will be overlap between the two tables.

Response 1:

I can confirm that Dyfed-Powys Police does hold the information requested, as outlined below.

Please note: we as a force have changed to a new records management system called NICHE since 15^th of May 2023 and the way certain things are recorded on this system is different to the old system we used. When it comes to the outcomes section the ones coloured in blue are some of the old outcome description that was used previously.

Please note: We as a force have changed to a new records management system called NICHE since 15^th of May 2023 and the way certain things are recorded on this system is different to the old system we used. When it comes to the outcomes section the ones coloured in blue are some of the old outcome description that was used previously.

It should be noted that as a result of the systems adopted by Dyfed-Powys Police in relation to the recording of such information that the information released may or may not be accurate.

Furthermore, it should also be noted that Police forces in the United Kingdom are routinely required to provide crime statistics to government bodies and the recording criteria is set nationally. However, the systems used for recording these figures are not generic, nor are the procedures used locally in capturing the crime data. It should be noted that for these reasons this force's response to your questions should not be used for comparison purposes with any other response you may receive.
