Abstract
To obtain overall annual rates of increase in number of confiscations (which throughout this paper include abandonments) and in policing effort in a manner that takes into account possible monthly effects and, in the case of policing effort, the fact that various types of policing exercises are carried out, Generalised Linear Models (GLMs) were applied to these data (either aggregated or disaggregated by Super-area) by Brandão et al. (2011a, b and c). In this paper, the analyses of Brandão et al. (2011b and c) on a Super-area basis are updated to include further data now available. These disaggregated data are reported in the Appendix.
