Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many victims of domestic violence had a known mental health disorder in (a) Preston and (b) Lancashire in the latest period for which data is available.

The Home Office collects information on the number of offences recorded by the police in England and Wales that were domestic abuse-related at the Police Force Area level. Information is not collected on whether the victims of these offences had known mental health disorders or not.

The Home Office does not hold data on how many people with domestic abuse allegations have gone on to be convicted for offences related to public disorder or extremism. Information on convictions is the responsibility of the Ministry of Justice.
