MOPAC Annual Report 2012/13

This report provides an overview of MOPAC's activity since it was established by the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011.

2012/13 has been a year of significant change at MOPAC and has been used to plan for the Mayoral term, culminating in the launch of the Police and Crime Plan 2013-16 in March 2013.

MOPAC has set out two bold objectives to realise by 2016 - the '20:20:20 Challenges'. The policing challenge is to cut seven key, high-volume neighbourhood crimes by 20%, boost public confidence in the police by 20%, and cut costs at the MPS by 20% to save £500 million; and the criminal justice challenge is to seek swifter justice for victims by reducing delays in the criminal justice system by 20%, achieve surer justice by increasing compliance with community sentences by 20%, and to reduce reoffending by young people leaving custody in London by 20%.

MOPAC have already delivered a number of the Mayor's manifesto commitments whilst maintaining business as usual.
