Discussion Post

Discuss the government report. Can all the data reported here be considered to be reliable? Does the report differentiate clearly between police recorded crime figures and data from the Crime Survey for Scotland and are there any implications for understanding crime rates?

Consider some of the following:

1) Where does the report come from? Look at (sections of) the full seventy-seven page- document
2) How is it compiled?
3) Is it clear how the crimes are defined?
4) What time frame does it cover?
5) What information is available to make sense of the data?
6) How is crime shown in tables and figures?
7) Do you think anything is missing from the report?
8) Are there any questions about the reliability and recording of crimes?
