Now more than ever we need evidence based policies. For too long we have had policy based evidence. We need brave public sector organisations who are prepared to work together, this includes โsharingโ data, in order to robustly evaluate what works to address in equalities 1/15
Too often we have evaluated a policy post itโs implementation & often in the isolation of one agency. The police regularly do this. Often the output measured is crime, is it up or down, have there been more or less searches or non-incidents, whatโs happening to police demand?2/15
Itโs more complex than that, every action by one agency has effects elsewhere in the system for another, changes in health mental health services is an obvious example which could change demand on the police, the police charging suspects creates demand in the court, but also 3/15
