POLICY STATEMENT

INTELLIGENCE MANAGEMENT
Statement of Policy
The Wiltshire Constabulary operates the National Intelligence Model as a corporate framework to bring
together best practices in intelligence led initiatives, offering a blue-print to develop strategies that will improve
the quality of life within our communities. This approach should not be seen as focusing purely on crime, but
capable of being adapted to all other aspects of policing.
Aims of the Policy

We will ensure that the management of all intelligence is conducted in an ethical, non-discriminatory and
efficient manner.
Working together with our extended police family and partnership agencies, we will focus resources by
utilising intelligence to maximise the impact on crime within our community.
Strategic Aims Linked to This Policy

Reducing and detecting crime.

To develop safer communities through partnerships.
To seek, in partnership with other agencies, to reduce road traffic casualties.
To ensure continuing organisational development.
