National Community Safety Plan 2008-11
In July the Government published Cutting Crime: A New Partnership 2008-11, which described a refreshed approach to tackling crime and increasing community safety. This set the overarching strategic framework for community safety from 2008/09 to 2010/11. This was followed in October by a new set of Public Service Agreements (PSAs).
This National Community Safety Plan covers the same period. This strategy has been revised to ensure that it is clearly in line with the Crime Strategy and PSAs. This does not mean a radical shift in direction - there is still strong continuity between the six themes of the National Community Safety Plan 2006-09 and the community safety priorities as set out in the new set of PSAs. However, there is some shift in emphasis, for example:
- A stronger focus on more serious violence
- Greater flexibility for local partners to deliver local priorities
- A specific outcome to increase community confidence
- The need to reflect the increased threat to communities posed by violent extremists.
The National Community Safety Plan is for members of all local partnerships with a role in delivering community safety. In particular, it is for Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnerships (CDRPs), but will also be relevant to Local Strategic Partnerships (LSPs) and Local Criminal Justice Boards (LCJBs).
