AABC conference website now fully operational


The AABC conference website has been completed and can now be accessed to view the programme, to book delegate places, book accomodation and download the Partnership Excellence Awards application forms. This is the only national conference to focus exclusively on business crime partnerships and their work and provides an essential information and networking opportunity for everyone whose work encompasses business crime.

There is a full and exciting speaker programme with contributions from business crime reduction partnerships, the National Fraud Authority, National Counter-Terrorist Support Office, ACPO, national retailers, Information Commissioner and others. 

There is also the Partnership Excellence Award programme where partnerships can win valuable prizes, plaques and certificates in recognition of the good work they have carried out in the last year in the three categories of managing the evening economy, partnership innovation and promoting community safety.

There is free parking at the venue and early bird discounts on the advertised prices as well as discounts for group bookings.  The prices are already lower than at our last conference so this makes it a real value-for-money event.

For all this information and more go to the events page on the AABC website (www.businesscrime.org.uk).

Guidance and advice on databases and handling of personal and sensitive data

With the emergence of new databases with the ability to disseminate personal and sensitive data, AABC has sought advice and guidance from the Information Commissioner's Office to ensure that BCRPs are able to make reasoned and informed decisions concerning the purchase, operation and management of databases, including access by third party users. As new systems, which may not have sought the benefit of guidance from the ICO, present themselves to BCRPs as solutions to data sharing, it is important that they ascertain their suitability before committing themselves financially or facing difficulties of data compliance in the future.
