Guide to Setting Up A Regional Platform for Crime Control (RPCC)
(The Netherlands)
Summary: Created by the National Platform for Crime Control Foundation in December 2002, this Guide seeks to facilitate the working together of public and private partners on crime prevention at the regional level, in order to create a more secure region. Its objectives are to bring together partners to discuss and tackle crime-related issues; to stimulate local crime-prevention initiatives; to help platforms set up their activities; and to provide practical tips for burgeoning regional platforms. The guide includes instructions on RPCC set-up, composition, financing, implementation of activities, regional layout, activities, the role of an RPCC, information and communication, as well as case studies. The guide is intended for all potential partners of an RPCC, particularly the Chamber of Commerce, employers’ and employee’s associations, police, justice organizations, and municipal and provincial authorities.
