SPoC & DP scrutiny. 27% of submitted applications were returned to the applicant
by the SPoC for development and a further 5% were declined by the SPoC (Figure 7).
Reasons for refusing data applications included: lack of clarity; failure to link the crime to
the communications address; and insufficient justification for collateral intrusion. 4% of
submitted applications were returned to applicants by DPs for further development and
1% were rejected (Figure 8).
Figure 8 breaks down the reasons why applications were returned for further
development or declined by the SPoC.
