Report: 7
Date: 10 April 2001
By: Commissioner
Summary
This report gives an overview of MPS performance, and provides a full listing of Policing Plan and Best Value Performance Indicators.
A. Recommendation
That committee members note the contents of this report.
B. Supporting information
1. The MPS performance report for February is circulated for the information of members (Appendix 1). The MPS Performance Review Committee (PRC) considered this report on 23 March.
2. The report includes the full listing of the Best Value and Policing Plan indicators, showing information up to and including February wherever possible.
3. As requested at last PRC, the report shows on page two areas where MPS performance has improved on last year. The bright green shading highlights that while we have failed to deliver on some of the targets set, the MPS has demonstrated improved performance in most areas.
4. For comparison:
| 1999/2000 performance |
2000/2001 performance (year to date) |
2000/2001 target |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| Homicide clear ups | 76.5% | 81.1% | 89% |
| Street crime offences | up 36.2% | up 18.0% | zero growth |
| Street crime JDs | 7.7% | 8.3% | 9% |
| Burglary offences | up 4.4% | down 9.9% | 2% reduction |
| Burglary JDs | 9.2% | 9.8% | 10% |
| Autocrime offences | up 7.8% | up 0.6% | 8% reduction |
| Autocrime JDs | 4.4% | 4.4% | 8% |
| Class A drugs JDs | down 10.6% | up 23.3% | up 10% |
| Total notifiable offence | up 12.7% | down 1.8% | 2.8% reduction |
5. PRC noted the shift in financial position; current budget is now projecting a 0.3 per cent overspend at year-end. The meeting was updated on the proposals for budget monitoring and reporting in the next financial year.
6. The meeting noted that the roll out of diversity training is not keeping pace with the target this financial year (to have trained 40 per cent of MPS staff and by 31 March 2001). The MPS has trained 28 per cent of the staff between April – February 2000, which includes 8 completed Boroughs. PRC agreed that attendance rates at diversity training would be reported to borough commanders, and followed-up as part of the Cluster Commanders' performance review visits.
7. PRC received a summary of staffing vacancies in borough CJUs, and agreed a further examination of the position on those carrying the highest number of vacancies.
8. Commander Hagon outlined the agreed action plan of the MPS PNC Steering Group. The group is working to improve the quality of MPS data on the PNC system.
