Note:
* If a person is prosecuted on two or more occasions in a year, he will be recorded once for each occasion; on the other hand, if a person is
prosecuted on the same occasion for more than one offence, only the principal offence will be taken for tabulation. # Due to the change in method of counting burglary incidents in 1988, the crime figures for 1987 have been revised so that they can be
comparable with those of 1988.
