3 OFFICIAL OFFICIAL 1 Drug dealing and drug misuse 2 Violence and antisocial behaviour 3 Dishonesty 4 Road Safety PRIORITY AREA EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Drug supply and misuse Drug dealing and misuse continues to be a priority area for our attention in Ren- frewshire as communities tell us they are concerned about the harm caused. Contin- ued focus and proactivity on the issue has contributed to an increase of 14% in the number of detected drug supply offences, compared to the previous five year aver- age. In the reporting period, 143 crimes have been reported to the Crown. We con- tinue to gather intelligence for further enforcement action in Renfrewshire, howev- er we manage this from a Divisional perspective as criminals do not recognise Local Authority boundaries. Violence & ASB Overall, recorded violent crime has fallen by 3.5% on the five year average, although a rise of 8.2% has been recorded on the previous year. It should be noted that vio- lence in the previous year declined on previous years, almost certainly due to COVID -19 restrictions which limited opportunities for interpersonal violence to occur. Over the longer term, however, crimes of serious violence are down by 3.5%, while com- mon assaults (including on police officers and other emergency workers) have fallen by 1.3%. Meanwhile, public complaints of disorder have fallen by 26.1% on the pre- vious year—highly likely due to the easing of COVID-19 restrictions and the associat- ed drop in public reporting of breaches of these. Dishonesty Housebreaking crime continues to follow a declining trend— having fallen by 34.3% against the previous five year average to a total of 239 crimes. This decrease is evi- dent in all categories of HB crime (dwelling house, sheds/outbuildings, and commer- cial/other premises). Motor vehicle crimes are also trending down, with a decrease of 9.9% on the five year average. Fraud is one of the few crimes of dishonesty for which an increase has been recorded—with reported crimes rising 52% above the five year average to a total of 441 crimes. Some of the most common fraud method- ologies used by offenders is internet order fraud, fraudulent use of victims’ bank accounts and cards, and cyber enabled ‘voice-phishing’ attacks. Road Safety Road injuries and deaths have increased by 25% on the previous year, to a total of 45 (three road deaths and 42 serious injuries). This is almost certainly linked to an increasing volume of traffic on Renfrewshire’s road network following the easing of COVID-19 restrictions, however, serious road injuries and deaths remain below fig- ures recorded in pre-pandemic years (-4.3%).

4 OFFICIAL OFFICIAL DEMAND ANALYSIS - * PYTD - PREVIOUS YEAR TO DATE CYTD - CURRENT YEAR TO DATE CRIME PYTD CYTD INCIDENTS PYTD CYTD Total Crimes & Offences 10,380 9,225 Total number of incidents 49,554 49,338 The volume of recorded crime and offences has fallen by 9.4% on the five year average and by 0.4% on the previous year. The only crime category which increased in recorded volume against the previous five year average was sexual crime, which rose by 19.2%. However, it should be noted that a high volume of reported sexual crimes continues to be non-recent in nature. Meanwhile crimes of serious violence, dishonesty, malicious mischief, proactive crimes, and offences (including road traffic offences) all fell by margins of between 3.3% and 14.5%, as compared to five year av- erages.

5 OFFICIAL OFFICIAL ONLINE & CYBERCRIME - DATA OVERVIEW CONTEXT: Analysis identified a minimum of 713 cybercrimes in the reporting period in Renfrewshire. 42% of these involved threatening or abusive communications offences, while a further 36% related to online fraud and other financially motivated crimes. ACQUISITIVE CRIME — DATA OVERVIEW 669 shoplifting crimes have been recorded – a 23.4% decrease on the five year average. Meanwhile, the de- tection rate fell by 23 percentage points on the previous five year average to 51.4% in the current reporting year. It is highly likely that the legal requirement for the wearing of face coverings in public spaces created additional challenges in identifying shoplifters. Housebreaking crimes (including attempts) fell by 34.3% on the five year average, to a total of 239 crimes. The detection rate is 24.7%, 1.7 percentage points above the five year average rate. Motor vehicle crimes fell by 9.9% on the five year average, to a total of 403 crimes. Theft from insecure motor vehicles currently accounts for the highest proportion of all sub-categories of motor vehicle crime. The MV crime detection rate is 26.8%, an increase of 1.8 percentage points on the five year average rate . 26 doorstep/bogus crimes have been recorded in the reporting period, with victims often being elderly. Seven of these crimes have been detected at the current time. Crimes typically involved suspects failing to undertake work on gardens and dwelling houses after accepting payment for same; some suspects also posed as legiti- mate workers to gain access to dwelling houses to steal from within. COUNTER TERRORISM & DOMESTIC EXTREMISM The current threat to the UK from terrorism is SUBSTANTIAL—meaning that an attack is likely. Page 7 of 26

6 OFFICIAL OFFICIAL ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOUR, VOLENCE & DISORDER - DATA OVERVIEW 267 Group 1 crimes of violence have been recorded, a decrease of 3.3% compared to the previous five year average. Two murders and 13 attempted murders have been recorded, compared to a five year average of 3.4 and 13, respectively. Meanwhile, serious assaults have fallen by 20.6% to a total of 108 crimes, compared to a five year average of 136. Rob- beries have fallen from a five year average of approximately 73 crimes, to 55 (-24.9%). The overall detection rate for Group 1 crimes of violence is 65.5%, compared to the five year average rate of 73.8%. There were 1,687 recorded common assaults in the reporting period, of which 238 targeted police officers and other emer- gency workers. The total number of common assaults fell by 1.2% on the previous five year average (20 fewer victims). The detection rate for minor violence in 2021/22 was 67.6%, compared to a five year average of 71.6%. 86 wilful fireraising crimes have been recorded, a substantial decrease on the preceding five year average (n=106.4). The current detection rate is 17.4%, compared to the five year average rate of 22.9%. Wheelie bins and motor vehicles were the most common objects/property involved in wilful fireraising crimes, featuring in 38% and 32% of reported crimes, re- spectively. 1 APRIL 2020 TO 30 NOVEMBER - OBJECTIVE: Reduce the number of victims of violent crime Antisocial Behaviour Public complaints regarding disorder fell by 26.1% against the previous year, to a total of 8,147 incidents. This is almost certain to be due to the easing of COVID -19 restrictions and the associated decline in public reports of actual or perceived breaches of rules de- signed to slow the spread of the virus.

7 OFFICIAL OFFICIAL SERIOUS ORGANISED CRIME - DATA OVERVIEW In the reporting period, there were 143 de- tections for drug supply, production and culti- vation offences—an increase of 14% on the previous five year average. Meanwhile, the detection rate for all recorded drug supply offences was 92.3%, an increase of 0.6 per- centage points on the five year average. Commodity seizures included etizolam, heroin, cocaine and cannabis. Proactive work is carried out on a daily basis by teams based within Renfrewshire, supported by Divisional teams, which specifically target the Serious and Organised Crime groups, one of which predominantly impacts on Renfrewshire. Enforcement activity is intelligence led to ensure the right people are being targeted in the right plac- es. We continue to gather intelligence for further enforcement action in Renfrewshire and it remains a priority for officers to carry out intelligence led patrols ensuring that individuals involved in the posses- sion and supply of controlled drugs are proactively engaged, subsequently leading to obtaining and executing search warrants. Reported sexual crimes increased by 19.2% on the previous five year average, to a total of 448 crimes. The detection rate for sexual crime is 56.7%, a drop of 2.2 percentage points on the five year average. 45% of these crimes involved non-recent reporting—with a large proportion of non-recent reports involving child victims. 13% of recorded sexual crimes were cyber- enabled in nature. MISSING PEOPLE There were 649 recorded missing persons incidents, an increase of 63.1% on the previous year. Over 11% of the total number of incidents relating to the top five most frequent missing persons within Ren- frewshire, all of whom were young people aged under 19 years. Overall, around 81% of all missing per- sons in Renfrewshire belonged in this age category. Young Persons’ Units continue to feature predomi- nantly amongst the most common locations for missing persons incidents (37%). Nearly 70% of all missing people were traced within 24 hours. Less than five percent of incidents in- volved people being missing for over one week. PROTECTING PEOPLE AT RISK FROM HARM - DATA OVERVIEW Page 9 of 26

We will continue to work closely with our partners in Renfrewshireto ensure we are all “Working Together for a Safer Scotland” through targeting risks to our communities at a local level. The plan has been developed to complement key partnership activity embedded across Renfrewshire Community Plan and associated Delivery and Thematic plans. Through partnership working we will seek to deliver continuous improvement in our performance and effective service delivery in our area of operations. The Local Fire and Rescue Plan for Renfrewshire identified six areas for demand reduction and is subject to regular monitoring and reporting through the Police / Fire and Rescue Committee. A summary of the priorities and current activity is detailed below with further detail and analysis contained within this performance report.
