Written Question
Metals: Theft
Tuesday 8th June 2021

Asked by: Lord Faulkner of Worcester (Labour - Life peer)

Question to the Home Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government how many incidents of metal theft were recorded on the Police National Database in (1) 2018, (2) 2019, and (3) 2020.

Answered by Baroness Williams of Trafford - Shadow Chief Whip (Lords)

The Home Office’s preferred measure of metal theft is based on the Home Office Data Hub (HODH) which collects data relating to metal theft offences from police forces in England and Wales. This data is published annually by the Office of National Statistics (ONS) as part of their Property Crime tables. The latest published data can be found here: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/crimeandjustice/datasets/focusonpropertycrimeappendixtables
