   Chapter 5 of this bulletin has been updated after it was found that some police forces had supplied the Home Office with the outcomes of their stop and searches under incorrect column headings in the data collection template. While the number of stop and searches that resulted in an arrest has not changed, the number and proportion of stop and searches that resulted in ‘No further action’ have been affected. The accompanying BUSS data tables, including the BUSS Open Data Table, have also been updated.
