Dear Mr Chapman

 

 

 

FOI Request Reference: 001479/16

 

Thank you for your request for information, received 02/02/2016

 

REQUEST

Birmingham, between January 2013 and December 2015.

    

For each incident I would like the following information: Category,
description, status/outcome, date and time, location

RESPONSE

 

Please find attached my response

 

Please note that these data should be interpreted with caution. Comparing
numbers of crimes can be misleading and does not necessarily indicate the
likelihood of someone being a victim of crime. In addition, the number of
incidents/crimes recorded in an area over a period of time can be
influenced by a number of factors. Consequently statistics on
incidents/crimes for one period may not necessarily be a good indicator of
future incidents in that area.

 

Every effort is made to ensure that the figures presented are accurate and
complete. However, it is important to note that these data have been
extracted from a number of data sources used by forces for police
purposes. The detail collected to respond specifically to your request is
subject to the inaccuracies inherent in any large scale recording system.
As a consequence, care should be taken to ensure data collection processes
and their inevitable limitations are taken into account when interpreting
those data.

 

The figures provided therefore are our best interpretation of relevance of
data to your request, but you should be aware that the collation of
figures for ad hoc requests may have limitations and this should be taken
into account when those data are used.

 

If you decide to write an article / use the enclosed data we would ask you
to take into consideration the factors highlighted in this document so as
to not mislead members of the public or official bodies, or misrepresent
the relevance of the whole or any part of this disclosed material.

 

As recommended as good practice by the Information Commissioner’s Office a
version of this response may be published on the West Midlands Police
website.

Dear Mr Chapman

Please find attached my response to your request in excel format. The data has been provided to you in separate tables because line by line data is likely to identify an individual incident and attract exemptions under the Act, in particular s40 personal data and s30 investigations.

http://foi.west-midlands.police.uk/revie...

Please note that such an appeal must be received within 20 working days of the date of this correspondence. Any such request received after this time will only be considered at the discretion of the FOI Unit.
