The report states: “West Yorkshire Police\u2019s officers and staff understand the importance of correctly recording crime.\n<\/p>\n

\n “Strong leadership, good governance and effective training for frontline officers and staff have led to outstanding crime-recording standards.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Superintendent Daniel Wood, of the force\u2019s Corporate Services department, said: \u201cWe are delighted to have been recognised by the Inspectorate in this way.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cThe force has put a lot of time and effort into improving and maintaining these standards.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cAccurate crime recording is key to giving our victims the service they expect when reporting matters to us.
