Information was not available from the primary studies to test whether these mechanisms were responsible for the outcome patterns observed in either review.

The primary crime outcome reported by Review one related to assaults on police officers, officer injuries and resistance. This outcome measure was reported by 15 studies, and the meta-analysis found a small (15.9%) increase in assaults or resistance against officers wearing BWCs. This finding was not statistically significant.

The City of Windsor and its mayor have been picked out as egregious examples of municipal housing missteps by a prominent expert in the field and author of a recent report identifying poor building performance in Ontario.

Review two covered 11 studies. Six of the studies included in the review were from the USA and the remaining 5 were from the UK. The review did not include a meta-analysis but does contribute to the mechanism, implementation and economic consideration sections of this summary.

Whilst no economic analysis was conducted within Review two, some mention of costs was reported in the primary studies. One study reported a £50,000 saving in court, prosecution and police costs over the course of two trials, resulting in an estimated £125,000 saving per year. However, the author notes that considerable caution should be taken when considering these cost estimates.

Review two provided a limited account of how the intervention was implemented to ensure BWCs were used in line with requirements. One study described how resistance to using BWCs was overcome by daily reinforcement, and compliance was best maintained when a senior officer was present.

The reviews did not examine the population groups or conditions the intervention might work best with. Review one carried out some analysis of study-level characteristics which may affect outcomes, and this has been summarised in the ‘effect’ section above.

While no economic analysis was conducted in either review, one study did suggest that the implementation of BWCs is cost-effective, but these economic calculations should be treated with caution.

For all other outcomes including for example; arrests (reported by 13 studies) and officer initiated calls for service (reported by eight studies) results were inconclusive with non-significant results.

In Review one, a number of different study designs were tested. It was found that, when compared to randomised control trials (RCTs), quasi-experiments were statistically more likely to show a relative reduction in arrests. They also showed a relative increase in dispatched and self-initiated calls for service for officers wearing BWCs. Studies that reported lower levels of contamination between the treatment and control group were statistically more likely to see reductions in arrests with BWC use.

Review one suggests that the use of BWCs increased self-awareness brought about by the knowledge that police interactions with members of the public are being recorded and watched. This is hypothesised to have a deterrent effect on excessive use of force by police, as officers know that they are being recorded and therefore exercise restraint.

There is some evidence that BWCs have either increased or reduced crime. Overall they have not had a statistically significant effect on crime.

The studies examined the effects of BWC on assaults and resistance against officers (15 studies) and arrests (13 studies). Review one also explored a number of non-crime outcomes; including officer use of force (26 studies), complaints against officers (22 studies), officer-initiated calls for service (eight studies), dispatched calls for service (six studies), traffic stops and tickets (five studies), stop and search (four studies), incident reports (three studies), response times (three studies), non-traffic citations (two studies) and time spent on scene (one study).

In terms of non-crime outcomes, evidence from Review one suggests that use of BWCs can reduce complaints against officers. In terms of mechanisms, it is assumed that the process of being recorded by the BWC causes a change in police officer and public behaviour, which affects the nature of the interaction between the parties. Also, BWC can provide officers with an additional level of information to assist recall when writing statements and giving evidence. It must be noted that these mechanisms were not tested in the two reviews.
