Annual Crime Statistics (FOI)

​Request

Could you provide me with the latest annual crime statistics for the Island of Jersey. If this is offered by area, the area of Grouville is of particular interest. I did try and access the information on the Police.uk website unfortunately the information is not shown there like other parts of the UK.

I am interested in crime by type - GBH, ABH, Theft, ASB, Arson, Criminal Damage and so on. Ideally I would like crime numbers per month for a 12 month period to date (or the latest closest date to 1 August 2021)

Response

Jersey is not part of the United Kingdom. The States of Jersey Police do not contribute to the Police.uk web site. Home | Police.uk (www.police.uk)

Jersey has its own legislation and the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 governs the processes for Freedom of Information requests and responses.

The statistics requested were published in a recent Freedom of information response at the following link:

Crime statistics (FOI)

These are the latest published figures from the States of Jersey Police.
