There were 61 asb incidents reported for the month of November. This represents a decrease of some 18% as compared to the previous month’s total of 74 and is the third successive month to show a decrease in the number of reported incidents. This welcome reduction, as commented on before, is mostly probably due to a change in the weather as we approach the colder, darker, Winter months.
