Serious Violence Duty: Gwent needs assessment and strategy
The minute records conclusions. The Committee commended the report as very accessible and informative. It recommended that a discrepancy on page 179 be clarified or corrected, because weapon-related crime and rape and sexual offences showed the same figures for Newport and for Gwent. The Policy and Partnership Manager said this would be corrected. The Committee asked for ward-by-ward data and was told the report would come back to it. It suggested adding an ethnic breakdown of hate crime targets to the needs assessment. It also suggested showing actual numbers rather than percentage increases, because small numbers can mislead.

Items are linked when their titles share most of their words and they fall within 18 months of each other. Councils don't number reports across meetings, so a few links may be wrong, and a step may be missing if its title changed a lot. Each step links to the meeting, where the council's own papers are.
