In Response:
Following receipt of your request, searches were conducted with the Corporate Development Department of Northumbria Police. I can confirm that the information you have requested is held by Northumbria Police.
I am able to disclose the located information to you as follows with the following caveat noted.
This data relates to any incident logged as occurring within any NE1 postcode.
Incidents are logged based on their location, however it should be noted that not all incidents will occur in a location that has an address; the force operates based on a number of sectors and areas rather than postcode.
As such, this may not constitute every single incident within the geographic area indicated, and therefore may not be accurate.
If you decide to write an article / use the enclosed data we would expect that you to take into consideration the factors highlighted above so as not to mislead members of the public or official bodies or misrepresent the relevance of the whole or any part of this disclosed material.
