The weighted clearance rate is based on the principle that more serious offences are assigned a higher 'weight' than less serious offences. As an example, the clearing of homicides, assaults or burglaries would represent a greater contribution to the overall weighted clearance rate value than the clearing of minor thefts or disturbing the peace.
