From Central Research to Local Practice: Identifying and Addressing Repeat Victimization

Gloria Laycock

Public Money & Management, 2000, vol. 20, issue 4, 17-22

Abstract: This article describes the action taken by a central government research group to ensure the implementation of recommendations for both policy and practice, which arose from a major programme of research on the prevention of crime. The research, which demonstrated that significant reductions in a range of offences could be achieved by focusing on the protection of first-time victims, is used as an example of what needs to be done to ensure implementation. The article outlines the research findings and describes what the staff of the research group did to increase the likely uptake of these findings by policy-makers and practitioners.
