NTS 2014 Nelson Locally Supports Crime Prevention strategies by: Anticipating, recognising and appraising crime risk, and initiating the actions to reduce or remove it. Provides intelligence and data to better plan for and implement more effective local patrols.

NTS 2014 Nelson Nationally Ensures compliance with our reporting requirements to our strategic partners...Police and MOJ. Enhances our collaborative working relationship with Police at a national level.

NTS 2014 Nelson What can patrollers do to support this? Be observant. Be curious. Report factually, completely and accurately. Over report – it may not seem relevant at the time but may be relevant further down track. Understand that what you are doing is important for your patrol, for CPNZ on a national basis, for the Police and most importantly for you and your community. Always consider that national statistics are only as good as the reporting quality of our patrollers.
