Police Accountability
Purpose

The London Crime Reduction Board (LCRB) meets
quarterly with the aim to improve accountability between
regional partners through the delivery of an agreed
partnership strategic plan.
3.
Justice and re-entry
LCRB priorities July 2012
Key success factors are to:
1.
Hold the MPS to account and deliver the
Mayor’s manifesto commitments and
expectations.
2.
Challenge the MPS and other criminal justice
agencies to deliver value for money for the
London taxpayer and address the challenge
of fewer resources in the years ahead.
3.
Ensure that all of London’s public service
agencies work together to prevent crime,
seek swift and sure justice for victims, and
reduce re-offending.

The LCRB has identified three issues where joint
planning and delivery are currently key to London:
- tackling gangs
- tackling anti-social behaviour
- reducing re-offending (NOMS)
