CONTEXT
The data relates to 'recordable crimes' under Home Office recording rules and
indicates those offences that have been perceived as hate crimes by the victim
or any other person. Crimes were recoded from 1st January to 31st December
2010 in all police forces in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The Police Service is committed to reducing the under-reporting of hate crime
and would view increases in this data as a positive indicator, so long as it
reflects an increase in reporting and not an increase in the actual incidence of
crime which we strive to reduce.
CAVEATS TO DATA
Improvements in the way forces collect and record hate crime data mean that direct
year-on-year comparisons can be misleading. Individual forces are better placed to
reflect on statistical variation in their geographical areas.
All hate crimes are included and not additional to general crime (i.e. all these
crimes are also recorded in the figures for the relevant crime types, for example,
robbery, assault etc.)
Forces have only been collating data for the five strands of hate crime since 1st
April 2008.
Data for non-crime incidents is held locally. They are not included in this data
and not centrally collated by ACPO.
