The Committee had before it a report by Police Scotland, which provided the Committee with a strategic overview of ongoing crime prevention activity across the North East Division.

The report noted that the North East Division, in collaboration with stakeholders, delivered crime prevention through the implementation of strategies, policies, and measures designed to reduce crime, deter criminality, and enhance public safety through early intervention.  Whilst crime prevention was a shared responsibility, the Division’s dedicated workstreams were primarily led by the Partnerships, Preventions and Interventions Unit (PPI) and the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), under the oversight of departmental Chief Inspectors. 

The Committee heard from Divisional Commander Kate Stephen who provided an overview of the report and answered various questions from Members.

The report recommended:-

that the Committee discuss, comment on and endorse the report.
