Question NW398 to the Minister of Police
22 March 2019 - NW398
Mhlongo, Mr P to ask the Minister of Police
What is the current police to population ratio of each police station in each province in respect of murder?
Reply:
The South African Police Service (SAPS) determines the population ratio, using the mid-year population estimates, released and produced by Statistics South Africa that only covers national and provincial estimates. Thus far, the population ratio, per police station in each province, in respect of murder, is not available, since the areas in the country are not aligned to station boundaries. Therefore, the crime ratios cannot be determined.
