Recommendation 21

21 Paragraph: 103

Disappointment over exceptionally low number of successful spiking prosecutions

Conclusion
Successful prosecution has a deterrent value for both actual and would-be spikers and sends a clear message that spiking is a crime. We are therefore disappointed by the very low number of successful prosecutions for spiking offences.
