Crime and Disorder (Formulation and Implementation of Strategy) (Wales) Regulations 2007 c.3076

Crime and Disorder (Formulation and Implementation of Strategy) (Wales) Regulations 2007 No. 3076

Summary:

Section 5 of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (the 1998 Act) gives certain public authorities (�the responsible authorities�) in local government areas functions relating to the reduction of crime and disorder and the combating of substance misuse. Collectively these authorities are known in Wales as Community Safety Partnerships (CSPs). Section 6 of the 1998 Act places obligations on CSPs to formulate and implement a strategy to reduce crime and disorder and combat substance misuse. These Regulations make further provision as to the formulation and implementation of the strategy to reduce crime and disorder.
Regulation 3 provides that CSPs shall set up a strategy group. The role of the strategy group is to prepare a strategic assessment in accordance with Regulations 5 to 7 and the partnership plan in accordance with Regulations 8 and 9. The strategic assessment is an analysis of the levels and patterns of crime and disorder in the area and the priorities the CSP should adopt to address those matters. The partnership plan sets out a strategy for meeting those priorities and how that strategy should be implemented by the CSPs.
The Regulations also include provisions to facilitate information sharing within CSPs and Regulations to ensure that when preparing a strategic assessment and partnership plan the CSPs engage with their local communities. Regulation 13 makes provision for the responsible authorities to have regard to any guidance issued by the Welsh Ministers and the Secretary of State.

Made Under:

Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (C. 37) - sections 6(2), (3), (4), (5) and (9)(c) and 114; the Secretary of State and the Welsh Ministers jointly.
