Summary

"The main objective of this review is to assess the available research evidence on the effects of CCTV surveillance cameras on crime in public space. In addition to assessing the overall impact of CCTV on crime, this review will also investigate in which settings (e.g., city and town centers, car parks), against which crimes, and under what conditions it is most effective."--Page 5.
