Our Director of Research Sophie Davis spoke at a joint Spotlight on Corruption and APPG on Anti-Corruption and Responsible Tax event in parliament yesterday about economic crime and the UK's response.
🤔 How can we properly resource the fight against economic crime? That was the focus of a lively joint Spotlight on Corruption and APPG on Anti-Corruption and Responsible Tax event in Parliament yesterday afternoon that featured great contributions from a great panel of experts chaired by Rachel Blake MP. 👮 The event – which was held under the Chatham House rule – saw the panellists and the many well-informed audience members get to grips with the thorny issues holding back the UK’s enforcement of economic crime and exploring innovative ways of generate the impactful enforcement efforts needed to tackle such a large and growing problem. 🗣️ Many thanks to our panellists: Adrian Searle of the National Economic Crime Centre (NECC), Sophie Davis of Crest Advisory, Detective Superintendent Jim Halkett of City of London Police, and Spotlight’s own Susan Hawley. Thanks too to the Parliamentarians who joined us, including Phil B., Joe Powell and Julian Lewis, and the large audience of officials, experts and practitioners. 📒 The event was prompted by the findings of Spotlight’s recent series of enforcement reports that have highlighted a worrying enforcement gap for economic crime: 1️⃣ "All bark and no bite?: Taking stock of the UK’s enforcement of sanctions" 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eUaPPYJJ 2️⃣ "Global Corruption Busters: How development aid can boost the UK’s fight against dirty money" 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eS4vaUmA 3️⃣ "Is Britain’s FBI on its knees? How to make the National Crime Agency a genuinely elite crime fighting force" 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e5zEugNC 4️⃣ "Forging a virtuous circle: Reinvesting fines and criminal assets to turbocharge the fight against economic crime" 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eyvjGvpX #economiccrime #enforcement #reinvestment

Our Head of Strategy and Policy James Stott talks about the age at which domestic abuse is recognised in law using our research on the offending trajectories of domestic abuse perpetrators, as the UK Home Office responds to campaigning from the family of Holly Newton who was murdered when she was 15 by her ex-boyfriend. Read out research here: https://lnkd.in/eUKZnMzd
Can we identify and respond to abusive behaviour earlier while ensuring we do not label and stigmatise young people in the justice system? It is welcome news that the UK Home Office will review the age at which domestic abuse victims are recognised by law following campaigning by the family of Holly Newton, who was murdered when she was 15 years old by her ex-boyfriend. Arguably, this review should also look at domestic abuse perpetrators too. Currently, domestic abuse is classified as when the abuser and the victim are both aged 16 or over and are personally connected to each other. We risk tying ourselves in knots if we continue to apply a minimum age to a behaviour we know can emerge before that point. It’s even more complicated when currently a child can be a considered a victim of domestic abuse but only when the primary victim is someone else. Crest Advisory research on the offending trajectories of domestic abuse perpetrators with a major UK police forces shows the pattern of abusive and harmful behaviour starts before 16 - this will be familiar to colleagues in youth justice services. In being able to respond at the right time with the right support, it is important to acknowledge the behaviour. This should not undermine the push to take a more child-first, trauma-informed approach to young people in the justice system - in fact, calling a spade a spade might actually help us to do this more effectively. The example below from our research shows the offending trajectory of an archetype offender in our ‘prolific young offender’ group which was devised using clustering analysis. Before the age of 16, the offender commits two common assaults against their parent which were not labelled as domestic abuse. When the individual has turned 16, the domestic abuse flag begins to be recorded. Beyond missing the opportunity to intervene when abusive and harmful behaviour emerges, we risk underestimating the prevalence of domestic abuse committed against under 16s AND against adults whose abusers are under the age of 16 (child on parent violence for example). Data recording of domestic abuse has been much improved in recent years and categorising domestic abuse in line with the criminal age of responsibility will support agencies to understand the true scale and nature of this crime type, including informing our response at the point at which the behaviour emerges.

The new government's first budget comes at a crucial moment for the criminal justice system. Knife-enabled crime remains high and VAWG is increasing. Charge rates and public confidence in the police have plummeted and the courts face persistently large backlogs. Meanwhile, the prison system is on the brink of collapse - only surviving because the government released thousands of prisoners early - and the probation service struggles to fulfil its core function of keeping the public safe. So what does yesterday’s budget tell us about the direction of public spending on policing and the CJS? Crest's Head of Research Beth Mooney and and Senior Analyst Harry Ogden provide the detail: https://lnkd.in/e9iDG4Kb
