The data used in the MPS Crime Dashboard is available here MPS Crime Dashboard | Metropolitan Police, along with the related data definitions. Please note that datasets are updated monthly on the 6th of the month. Data runs until the end of the month prior. ***June 2024: The MPS monthly crime data-sets are now being extracted and compiled from the new CONNECT system within the MPS; these data-sets will have prefix M1045 added to the file name.*** The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) has introduced CONNECT, a new crime recording system that consolidates several previous systems into one integrated platform. This change aims to streamline processes and enhance efficiency across the board. At the end of February 2024 the MPS started using CONNECT to record crime and investigation data. There is a difference in how Hate Crime and Domestic Abuse are recorded on CONNECT compared with the legacy crime recording system of CRIS and for this reason, Hate Crime and Domestic Abuse figures pre an post March are not comparable. BCU and Borough data in CONNECT are determined by the geographic location of the incident, rather than the borough managing the case, as was the case with legacy systems. This new approach has been retroactively applied to legacy data to provide consistent and comparable analysis. Total Notifiable Offence (TNO) data follows the Home Office counting rules for recorded crime (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/counting-rules-for-recorded-crime ). NB This data-set includes “Other Accepted Crime”, which are non-notifiable crimes and must be excluded if calculating a TNO total. The “Other Crime” offence data follows the Home Office counting rules but have been grouped by specific features (e.g. Knife Crime): please see dashboard for definitions. NB "Hate Crime" totals do NOT include records that are flagged solely as 'domestic abuse'. Measures include Offences, Positive Outcomes, and the Positive Outcome Rate (total number of positive outcomes divided by the total number of offences in a given period). All data is broken down by financial year for each crime type.

The data used in the in the Annual Crime Statistics 2022 - 23 Dashboard is available here: 2022 - 2023 crime statistics | Metropolitan Police, along with the related data definitions. Please note that, this data sets is updated on the 4th of each April. Last extraction occurred April 2023. Total Notifiable Offence (TNO) data follows the Home Office counting rules for recorded crime (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/counting-rules-for-recorded-crime ). The “Other Crime” offence data follows the Home Office counting rules but have been grouped by specific features (e.g. Hate Crime): please see dashboard for definitions. Measures include Offences, Sanction Detections, and the Sanction Detection Rate (total number of sanction detections divided by the total number of offences in a given period). All data is broken down by financial year for each crime type, and can be filtered by Basic Command Unit (BCU) and Borough. NB: The Borough shown is the ‘investigating’ Borough not necessarily the Borough where the offence occurred. Due to an internal IT deployment, from 27th February these datasets may be temporarily disrupted. Work is ongoing to rebuild these datasets.

The data used in the MPS Homicide dashboard is available here Homicide dashboard | Metropolitan Police, along with the related data definitions. Please note that, this data set running quarterly behind with quarterly update. What does it show and how was the content agreed? In English and Welsh law, Homicide consists of the sum of 4 separate offences: Murder (Common Law) * Manslaughter (sec 5 of the Offences Against The Person Act 1861) Infanticide (Infanticide Act 1938) Corporate Manslaughter (Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007) these will not show gender for People Proceeded Against. *Note that since 1996, the 'Year and a day rule' has been abolished. Therefore crimes of GBH can be upgraded to murder if the victim dies from their injuries at any point in time past the original offence. Caveats Jurisdiction: Not all homicides in London are recorded by the MPS and presented in this report. It should be noted that 2 other police forces have jurisdiction within the boundary of London: The City of London Police (COLP) and British Transport Police (BTP). Therefore any homicides committed within their jurisdiction will be recorded and reported by them, and not the MPS. Terrorism: The victims of the terrorist attacks in London in 2005 and 2017 are included in this data. However, note that for 2005, the victims of the Tavistock Square bus bombing are in the jurisdiction of the MPS and so included in this report, whereas the victims of the three tube train bombings are in the jurisdiction of the BTP and so do not appear in this report. In addition, note that for the London Bridge attacks of 2017, 1 victim was in the jurisdiction of the COLP and so is not in this report, whereas the rest of the victims were in the jurisdiction of the MPS and so are in this report. Due to an internal IT deployment, from 27th February these datasets may be temporarily disrupted. Work is ongoing to rebuild these datasets.

This dataset contains crime reports from the City of Somerville Police Department's records management system from 2017 to present. Each data point represents an incident, which may involve multiple offenses (the most severe offense is provided here).,Incidents deemed sensitive by enforcement agencies are included in the data set but are stripped of time or location information to protect the privacy of victims. For these incidents, only the year of the offense is provided.,This data set is refreshed daily with data appearing with a one-month delay (for example, crime reports from 1/1 will appear on 2/1). If a daily update does not refresh, please email data@somervillema.gov.

The data used in the MPS Stop and Search Dashboard is available here Stop and Search Dashboard | Metropolitan Police, along with the related data definitions. Please note that, this dataset is updated monthly at the beginning of the month. Data runs until the end of the month prior. Definitions / Counting Rules Stop and Search (S&S) - When an officer stops a member of the public and searches them. The police can only detain members of the public in order to carry out a search when certain conditions have been met. Search powers fall under different areas of legislation which include searching for - Stolen property - Prohibited articles namely offensive weapons or anything used for burglary, theft, deception or criminal damage - Drugs - Guns Historically searches of unattended vehicles and vessels have made up a very low proportion of search activity. PACE and Other Stops and Searches - Stops and Searches under PACE (Police and Criminal Evidence Act), S23 Drugs Act, S47 Firearms Act plus a very small number not included in the other categories (e.g. s27(1) Aviation Security Act 1982 or S7 Sporting Events (Control of Alcohol) Act 1985) Section 60 Criminal Justice & Public Order Act 1994 (s.60) - Where an authorising officer reasonably believes that serious violence may take place or that persons are carrying dangerous instruments or offensive weapons without good reason they may authorise powers for officers in uniform to stop and search any person or vehicles within a defined area and time period. Search Groupings - Searches within this report are sometimes grouped as either Weapons, ASB or Key Crime searches. The Weapons group is composed of stops recorded under codes C - Firearms (s47 Firearms Act), D - Offensive Weapons (s1 PACE), K - Anticipated Violence (s60 CJPO). The ASB group is composed of codes B - Drugs (s23 Misuse of Drugs Act), L- Criminal Damage (s1 Pace), Y- Psychoactive Substances, Z - Fireworks (s1 Pace). The Key Crime Group is composed of codes A - Stolen Property (s1 PACE), F- Going Equipped (s1 PACE). Positive Outcomes - A Positive Outcome is any outcome other than 'No Further Action (NFA)'The Positive Outcome rate is determined by dividing the number of positive outcomes by the total number of searches. Ethnic Appearance - The ethnicity of the person stopped as perceived by the officer. For further information on the mapping of 4+1 groupings to 18+1 census data please see HO report Statistics on Race and the Criminal Justice System 2010 at http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pubsstatistical.html Self Defined Ethnicity (SDE) - The ethnic group as defined by the person stopped (National Census categories). This report uses 2011 Census data. This is held in 18+1 format and the recorded ethnic appearance of the Stop/Search (4+1) must be mapped to the appropriate 18+1 Census categories. The categories are mapped as follows: White = White British, White Irish, White Gypsy or Irish Traveller, and any other White Background. Black = Black or Black British, Caribbean, African, Mixed White and Black Caribbean, Mixed White and Black African, and any other Black Background Asian = Asian or Asian British Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Chinese, Mixed White and Asian and any other Asian background. Other = Arab, and any other Ethnic Group Caveats The Borough shown is location of search and not necessarily the borough of the officer conducting the search. The ethnicity of persons stopped and searched within the central London area are unlikely to reflect the resident population due to large numbers of both British and foreign tourists in this region. The MPS fully recognises the distress to the individual which any type of search where intimate parts are exposed can cause, and does not seek to downplay this. However, dip sampling of records has shown that historically some of the records included in this dashboard were wrongly recorded as MTIPs, when they were in fact strip searches conducted in custody after arrest.
