So. How much time do you reckon the police spend investigating crime? Obviously it won't be too high. They have a reputation for bureaucracy and back-covering paperwork which is second to none. Sixty per cent maybe? Surely it couldn't be 50% or less - well honestly - could it?A report into value for money for taxpayers found that just 13 per cent of police time is dedicated to investigating crime!
Well it wouldn't do for them to catch too many criminals - we do not have sufficient prison places as it is.
