Successful crime reduction partnerships may cause problems for their neighbours as excluded Offenders relocate their activites to where they are less well-known. Littoralis™ intranets can link up easily to enable simple yet highly effective intra-partnership information sharing - at zero cost.

Linking between Partnerships

Littoralis™ intranets have been designed to be flexible enough to reflect the way individual partnerships want to work, to suit their own procedures. But BCRP Intranet also allows interworking between individual partnerships for the purpose of monitoring travelling offenders or offenders excluded from one partnership area who will then try their hand in another.

Within a county or constabulary area, where a number of different partnerships use Littoralis™ intranets, each administrator can easily be added as 'members' of all the other neighbouring partnerships so that they are automatically alerted every week about new offenders or vulnerable people that have been added to each other's intranets.

Where information is controlled by the partnerships themselves, setting up such a network is quick and technology-free and requires only that a suitable protocol is created to govern the use of shared information acquired from and shared between partnerships. Increasingly, police support the development of such protocols to cover police-originated information. A suitable protocol is available from Littoralis™ at no charge. The result is a highly effective wide-area crime reduction network which effectively monitors and targets 'travelling' offenders.
