Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many prosecutions there have been for motor vehicle theft in the Nottinghamshire area in the latest period for which figures are available.

The number of defendants prosecuted for for motor vehicle theft in the Nottinghamshire area in 2017 can be found in the Criminal Justice Statistics Court Outcomes by PFA tool in the following link:

Ensure that only ‘Magistrates Court’ is selected in ‘Court Type’, select offence: ‘130 Theft of a motor vehicle (excl. aggravated vehicle taking’, which is a summary motoring offence, ‘48 Theft of a motor vehicle or other conveyance (excl. aggravated vehicle taking)’ a triable either way offence and ’37 Aggravated vehicle taking’.

Select ‘Nottinghamshire’ in ‘Police Force Area’.

Drag ‘Offence’ in to the ‘Rows’ in the PivotTable fields to see a breakdown of prosecutions for each motor vehicle theft offence.

The location refers to where offence is dealt with, not where the offence occurred.

Figures are available for 2007 to 2017, figures for 2018 are planned for publication in May 2019.
