If you call up and state you don't want to give your name do the police take an active role in recording the number etc... To identify the person making the call.

I have no intension of calling and reporting anything at present - but it's something I have wondered about.

I'm not talking about maliciously calling and causing grief. But more along the lines of - there is a bloke on xyz road whos getting his head kicked in etc... And not fake bomb hoaxes.

If it is recorded is this information given to regular police officers who respond?

Can't see how that information would affect anything sensitive. So I'd appreciate it if anyone in the know could tell me.

Thanks
