Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what proportion of (a) men and (b) women charged with assaulting a police officer were granted bail in magistrates' courts in each of the last five years.

The information can be found by selecting from the offence drop down boxes in the Remands – magistrates’ courts tool and Remands - Crown Court tool in the annual Criminal Justice Statistics publication, linked below. There is also a gender box and for magistrates’ courts please note that there is also information available on ‘gender not specified’ defendants.
