Number of Data Sources
The review found that there was a considerable variance between partnerships in
the information, which was used. This is perhaps unsurprising as the Crime & Disorder
Act was still relatively new. Nevertheless, there appears to be considerable scope
for the majority of partnerships to develop more effective information collection
systems.
The review found the most commonly used data by partnerships included:
