[QUOTE="Ranger Security Solutions, post: 7617379, member: 158492"] There has been a directive from "on high" for the past few years, for the different constabularies to have a policy and plan to manage rural crime, so yes, the stickers are likely to be a P&CC initiative. Resources need to be allocated proportionally, but without the police and government understanding the magnitude, then rural crime will always drop off the radar. To raise the profile, we need to raise the stats, and that can only be achieved through accurate reporting. And yes, call handlers (and other areas of law enforcement) do need a lot of education regarding the impact of rural crime. Again, this is relative, and what may not be serious in an urban environment has significant consequences for the rural community and rural businesses. We can't have a defeatist attitude; that allows the issue to be repeatedly brushed under the carpet. A simple call to 999 (crime in progress) or 101 (if an incident has already occurred) and get the crime number, which is then recorded on police stats. And referring rural crime incidents to NFU, CLA, etc. allows them to use those figures to lobby government (who drive initiatives and funding to the relevant areas). [/QUOTE]
