Policing Principles Is an organisational strategy that allows the police, its partners and the public to work closely together to solve the problems of crime and disorder, improve neighbourhood conditions and feelings of security.

Establishes dedicated identifiable, accessible and responsive neighbourhood policing teams which provide all citizens with a named point of access. Reflects local conditions and is flexible and adaptive. Allows the Police Service to work directly with local people to identify problems that are most important to them, thereby giving people direct influence over local policing priorities. Establishes a regime for engaging other agencies and the public in problem solving mechanisms. Uses the National Intelligence Model (NIM) as the basis for deployment. Requires an effective engagement, communication and feedback strategy, and a clear explanation of where accountability lies. Should be subject to rigorous performance management including clear performance monitoring against a local plan and commitments made to neighbourhoods. Signal Crimes
