In this edition: Meet the new CCTV regulator Andrew Rennison • Learn how camera sharing can pay big dividends • Take a tour of the University of Leeds new CCTV control room • Read an interview with DCI Mick Neville who is systematically harnessing technology and human knowledge to dramatically increase the effectiveness of CCTV.

Is it reliable? Will it do the washing up? And our columnists this month: David Dodd, formerly of Runnymede Council, Colin Greene on Talking Shop and Prof. Martin Gill on his CCTV research.
