Just to let you know, we had a fantastic year in 09/10 with calls up 20% and arrests up 63% largely as a result of the Most Wanted part of our website. We also had nearly 900 detections which means that every five calls we get leads to three cases being cleared up. In simple terms we get six calls every day about crime in this force area which leads to six arrests a week. Another statistic for you is that the money we raise and spend locally divided by the number of arrests we have achieved shows that the cost of each arrest is a mere trifle at £130.
