No. Those also are under way now, but I think most rank and file officers will tell you that they spend a huge amount of downtime just dealing with this.
In fact, just the pressure of this has led to various ad hoc arrangements. For instance, Peel Regional Police have an arrangement in their jurisdiction where, if an arrest is effected at a shopping centre, for shop theft or something else, you call in and speak to the desk sergeant and you tell him about all of the ID you have on the person, the offence, etc. They make a judgment over the phone; they give you a release number and they allow you to release at the scene, and then they mail out an offence ticket.
There are certain criteria to be met. Obviously this isn't a serious criminal who has a long criminal record; they're checking that back at the station. If those criteria are met, you're allowed to release. This is happening in Peel, and I've been told that it's happening in other jurisdictions as well. It's just an ad hoc measure that the police have worked out to try to cope with the pressure.
