Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many convictions there have been of landlords offering accommodation in return for sex under the offence of causing prostitution for gain under section 52 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003 in the last 12 months.
It is not possible to identify from centrally held data the number of offenders convicted for arrangements where sex had been requested in return for the provision of accommodation under section 52 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003. This particular behaviour cannot be disaggregated from broader “sexual offences” under the Act.
