Position and Statements on Hate Crime

The police service firmly believes that its role in society means that the police, above all, must be - and be seen to be - entirely fair to every individual and to all sections of the community. This must apply to our response to racist crime and all other forms of hate crime. Among these, homophobic crime is particularly relevant since many lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered (LGBT) people believe that homophobia is widespread within the service. They are wary of reporting any crime for fear that the police will investigate their lifestyle along with the crime. This mistrust is reinforced by a belief among many LGBT people that the police will not respect what they are told in confidence and may give information about a person's sexuality to family members, employers or neighbours.
