• An introduction identifying some of the types and uses of written communication in the criminal justice field
• The main requirements and features of a police report
• Definitions and explanations of those requirements and features in one or two sentences
• A summary that explains why the features identified are essential to an effective report, and why an effective report is important in the criminal justice process
