The Scottish Business Crime Centre is a non-profit making organisation created in 1996 under the Business Crime Reduction Strategy for Scotland, to establish a unique partnership approach between the Police, business community and Government.
The main function of the Centre is to provide practical advice to the business/commercial sectors on how to develop business crime reduction and prevention strategies. We aim to reduce business crime using a number of measures:
-
promoting specific initiatives within industry sectors and community groups
-
sharing good practice approaches to business related crime prevention
-
raising awareness of the level, impact and cost of business crime
-
creating and supporting a network of relevant partnerships and programmes

A scheme aimed at reducing drink-fuelled city centre crime has met with the approval of an Aberdeen sheriff.
The Best Bar None scheme, which was re-launched earlier this month, is a partnership project involving the city council, Grampian Police, and the Joint Alcohol and Drugs Action Team (JADAT). It was developed to encourage a higher standard of management of licensed premises, and to make them safer and more welcoming.
