The main points of the report are:

Quality of life calls have increased by 8 from 5 to 13

The rise in public nuisance has been attributed to lighter nights and related to "knock and run" type calls in Craigton Road.  The nuisance had been caused by a number of youths who were reprimanded in front of their parents.

There were 3 reported Housebreakings from garages and 4 reported thefts from motor vehicles.  4 Vandalism was reported.

Overall reported crimes were up by 6
