Abstract
The purpose of the research was to examine the dynamics and trends of the stolen property market in the ACT - in particular what happens to the property after it has been stolen. For example, the report looks at which particular goods are more likely to be stolen and why, common methods of disposal, and the extent to which goods are recovered.
