Part 1: Introduction, Installation and ownership, and Consultation
The objective of installing the cameras is to reduce the incidence of crime and disorder, so members of the community feel safe when visiting the public areas covered by the cameras.
Note: Guidelines for operating crime prevention cameras in residential areas are available on the Neighbourhood Support internet site.
Police may support local authorities and other groups wanting to install CCTV (closed circuit television cameras) in public places for crime prevention purposes.
The camera system will normally be owned by the local authority or other group and will normally be monitored by police or in conjunction with police.
Prior to any installation, the community must be consulted to ensure any concerns about the proposal are identified and resolved. Special attention must be given to the appropriate operation of the cameras, the privacy of individuals going about their lawful activities, and the establishment of a clear audit and review process.
