Questions with identification numbers of 900000 or greater indicate that the question was originally tabled as an oral question and has since been unstarred. ANSWERS ATTORNEY GENERAL Rape Helen Jones: [262243] To ask the Attorney General, how many complaints of rape were made in each region; and how many of these cases resulted in a (a) prosecution and (b) conviction in each year since 2010. Lucy Frazer: Rape is one of the most complex and challenging offences to prosecute and charging decisions have a profound impact on those involved. The CPS has undertaken extensive work over the last decade to ensure that when reaching prosecution decisions specialist prosecutors are fully equipped to deal with the particular complexities of rape cases. While the CPS does not hold a record of the number of complaints of rape to the police, we can provide data on the number of rape prosecutions and convictions recorded by the CPS system. The table below provides the volume of rape prosecutions broken down by CPS Area. 2010- 2011- 2012- 2013- 2014- 2015- 2016- 2017- 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 Cymru 278 224 233 257 276 217 251 230 Wales Eastern 212 239 201 224 266 298 275 226 East 293 311 278 252 271 277 320 383 Midlands London 495 352 349 376 414 368 430 365 North London 366 316 318 354 397 366 416 357 South Merseyside 142 135 127 120 143 176 243 202 & Cheshire North East 220 227 199 194 214 229 285 289 North West 478 459 455 454 556 557 601 469 2010- 2011- 2012- 2013- 2014- 2015- 2016- 2017- 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 South East 299 277 236 260 328 348 440 288 South West 222 257 300 288 287 306 296 310 Thames 202 203 181 204 266 269 303 187 and Chiltern Wessex 197 161 174 207 221 200 184 118 West 396 323 338 346 398 506 644 553 Midlands Yorkshire & 408 380 303 355 499 526 502 540 Humberside Total 4,208 3,864 3,692 3,891 4,536 4,643 5,190 4,517 Data Source: CPS Case Management Information System The following table provides a breakdown by CPS Area of the volume of rape convictions. 2010- 2011- 2012- 2013- 2014- 2015- 2016- 2017- 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 Cymru 146 140 135 149 150 115 139 140 Wales Eastern 145 165 136 142 165 167 169 142 East 166 208 188 174 186 179 208 231
