Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on European statistics on safety from crime

The aim of this proposal is to implement a household / personal survey in the European Union, covering safety from crime. It would make available information on the prevalence of specific types of crime (victimisation rates) and on other aspects relating to citizens’ feelings of security. This would provide a valuable addition to crime figures from administrative sources (such as police reports), which are known to be difficult to compare between Member States.
