Domestic Abuse: Convictions
(asked on 22nd June 2017) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, (a) how many and (b) what proportion of convictions flagged as domestic abuse offences resulted in a (i) custodial sentence and (ii) fine in each month since 2015.
This question was answered on 30th June 2017
Information on offences separately identified as domestic abuse cannot be separated out from other forms of assault or abuse in records held centrally by the Ministry of Justice. This is because data on the relationship between the victim and defendant is held on individual court records and therefore the information requested could only be provided at disproportionate costs.
