Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many attacks on people by dogs have been recorded by the police in Lancashire in the last 2 years.
The Home Office publishes police recorded crime open data tables which include violence against the person offences. There is not a specific crime for dog attacks. These will be recorded under violence against the person offences but cannot be separately identified in the data held by the Home Office.
