A) To be made aware of the offence that has most significantly dropped in being committed
between 2015-2016 across all of Wakefield
I would additionally like the figures of this offence being committed across the following years:
2011
2012
2013
2014
2015
2016 (Up to the most recent set of figures)
B) To be made aware of the offence that has most significantly increased in being committed
between 2015-2016 across all of Wakefield
I would additionally like the figures of this offence being committed across the following years:
2011
2012
2013
2014
2015
2016 (Up to the most recent set of figures)
Clarification:
1) In regards to the dates for all years I would initially have thought a request that data be
provided from 01/01/xx -31/12/xx would provide a full calendar year, if I am correct please
provide it from the first initial day of data being collected for that year until the final.
I would like this applied to all years requested.
2) For offences I would like the overall offence (like sex offences) highlighted.
Then as you suggested I would like a further breakdown of all sub categories and their
numbers.
And if possible confirmation of the sub category with the greatest increase or decrease.
Clarification:
I would request that I be supplied with the differences currently available between 2015 and
2016
But additionally I would like to request the differences between 2014 and 2015 for both
questions, as in retrospect I realise there will be a significant lack of data currently available
to compare the two years.
Please see the attached document.
