Question to the Home Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government how many of those extradited under the UK–US extradition treaty of 2003 entered a plea bargain in the US judicial system.

The Extradition Treaty between the UK and the US came into force on 26 April 2007. Since that date 133 people have been extradited to the US. Of those, nine were extradited for terrorism offences and 57 were extradited for finance-related charges, including wire fraud. The following offences have been included in this broad category of criminality:

• Wire Fraud
• Bribery
• Fraud
• Conspiracy to Defraud
• Tax Evasion / Offences
• Securities Fraud
• Money Laundering
• Computer Fraud
• Mail fraud

Information on plea bargaining is not centrally recorded by the Home Office.

All figures are from local management information and have not been quality assured to the level of published National Statistics. As such they should be treated as provisional and therefore subject to change. The figures do not include Scotland, which deals with its own extradition cases.
