Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many stop and searches were carried out in each local authority area within the Liverpool City Region in each year since 2010.

The Home Office collects and publishes statistics on the number of stop and searches conducted by each police force in England and Wales. The Home Office collects these data at Police Force Area level only and does not hold this information at the level of the Liverpool City Region.

Data on stop and searches are published in the ‘Police Powers and Proce-dures, England and Wales’ statistical bulletins, and data for the year ending March 2018 can be accessed here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-powers-and-procedures-england-and-wales-year-ending-31-march-2018

Data for the year ending March 2019 are due to be published in October 2019.
