  Police forces in the United Kingdom are routinely required to provide crime statistics to government bodies and the recording criteria is set nationally. However, the systems used for recording these figures are not generic, nor are the procedures used locally in capturing the crime data. It should be noted that for these reasons this force's response to your questions should not be used for comparison purposes with any other response you may receive.
  
  
  
  
          
  In addition, the data in this report reflects live data on the MPS crime system, which may be subject to small changes over time

Comment


         
 The safety of our officers is at the forefront of planning any operation and officers receive the appropriate training and equipment to carry out their duties as safely as possible. We monitor the number of assaults on our officers and examine the causes and contributing factors. From this we can amend standard operating procedures and training to reduce risk of injury wherever possible. The MPS now has a greater number of officers than ever before - 32,766. In addition, we have 4,625 PCSOs and 2,597 Specials.
