New Government CPTED Guideline for England

[2004] In the United Kingdom, CPTED professionals have been petitioning central government for more than a decade to give statutory power to crime prevention measures. In the middle of the last decade we learned that the issue had even been debated in cabinet – and promptly dismissed on the basis that it would add to red tape and bureaucracy. The only concession was a new Department of the Environment Circular 5/1994, ‘Planning Out Crime’, which some of us hawked around our local government authorities, in a manner similar to that of double glazing sales reps and with little success.
