National ANPR Service compliance dashboard: Q1 and Q2, 2023

Updated 10 December 2024

August 2023

Introduction

The National ANPR Compliance Dashboard has been designed to measure critical metrics for compliance with National ANPR Standards for Policing and Law Enforcement (NASPLE) and the National Standards for Compliance and Audit (Audit Standards) by police forces and law enforcement agencies (LEAs).

Metrics

A National Compliance Dashboard survey is sent to forces on a bi-annual basis to collect information in respect of the following in reference to the compliance and audit standards:

  • completion of a strategic review of ANPR infrastructure in the past 12 months
  • completion of a data protection impact assessment (DPIA) for camera infrastructure
  • maintenance of camera infrastructure
  • completion of the Surveillance Camera Commissioner’s Self-Assessment process
  • audit of user accounts
  • management of vehicle of interest (VOI) lists
  • audit of local systems that store NAS data

Reporting

Please note that not all questions are relevant to all forces/LEAs. The compliance reports take account of this when calculating the overall compliance level.

The percentage of forces/LEAs responding to the survey is recorded and reported. Non-responding LEAs and forces are highlighted within the report at an individual force/LEA basis and are not counted in the compliance figures.

To allow for an overall compliance figure to be calculated where the metric can be measured as either achieved or not achieved, 100% is awarded for compliance, and 0% for non-compliance. For ease of reporting and understanding, this data appears as ‘Yes’ indicating compliance, ‘No’ indicating non-compliance in the metric level tables.
