Research information:
I'm currently examining the role and treatment of information in public policy and operations in criminal justice: statistics, databases, registries, administrative operational data, research results etc. This information arises and is used as evidence in investigations and decisions of a wide range of police, judicial and correctional institutions. I am particularly interested in the validity and reliability of information and of procedures for its use, as well as implications for rights to privacy.
