Findings

Patterns found across the sessions submitted so far, each reviewed by an analyst before being shown here. A finding is withdrawn if later sessions stop bearing it out.

  • ASB Problem-Solving Audit · Neighbourhood ASB 2026

    Cases where the plan was reviewed with the victim within 14 days had a further ASB call within 90 days less often.

    Plan reviewed with victim within 14 days Of the cases, with a repeat call Sessions
    Yes21 of 96 (22%)96
    No38 of 74 (51%)74
    • Found together, which does not show that one causes the other: wards that review plans quickly may differ in other ways.
    • Seen in 3 of the 4 neighbourhood areas analysed separately.

    Analyst's note: Worth testing as a standard: a 14-day victim review in Glebe Park and Fenwick for the next quarter.

  • Response Driving Observation · Roads Policing 2026

    Drives where radio and navigation workload was mismanaged reached an undesired vehicle state more often.

    • Found together, which does not show that one causes the other.
    • Mostly single-crewed drives: 29 of the 41 were single-crewed, so the two may be part of the same pattern.
    • Seen in both roads policing units.

  • Wellbeing Pulse · Force-wide 2026

    Teams whose supervisors held wellbeing conversations at least monthly less often had long-term sickness above the force average.

    • Found together, which does not show that one causes the other; only 42 teams, so treat this as a lead to follow, not a result.
    • Sickness figures linked from HR at team level; no individual's record is shown or used.
