This question was answered on 13th January 2015
The Home Office does not collect information to this level of detail. The Home Office collects arrest data for notifiable offences at offence group level. Drink-driving is a non-notifiable offence code. The latest arrest statistics
cover the period up to March 2013.
CPS collect data on charges, however they collect data on the number of offences leading to charges, rather than the number of people charged.
