Irish Examiner (Republic of Ireland) 19/11/2024 News Fit for the future: the case for a reformed national policing landscape Fit for the future: the case for a reformed national policing landscape, published by the Police Foundation and Leapwise Advisory, calls for a single national police agency to support better frontline policing for local communities across England and Wales. The Police Foundation 19/11/2024 Report Responding to nonemergency calls for service via video: A randomized controlled trial Research summary: We tested the effectiveness of virtual response in policing as an alternative to the traditional physical presence of officers to nonemergency calls for service. We randomly assigned 1059 eligible calls to either virtual or in-person responses. We estimated the results in terms of waiting time, criminal justice outcomes, cost efficiency, and victim satisfaction based on a representative sample of telephone interviews. We found significant improvements across all measures when using a virtual response, including reduced victim waiting times, greater odds of arrest and charges, and enhanced perceptions of procedural justice, satisfaction, trust, and confidence in the police service. We found no adverse effects on victims due to the lack of physical presence. Research implications: These findings suggest that, as with e-health services, law enforcement can benefit from a cost–beneficial virtual response to nonemergency calls for service. We encourage its consideration as a mass deployment option in policing, as well as a basis for future experimental replications.
