PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Drugs: Crime (30 July 2024)

The Ministry of Justice publishes data on the number of prosecutions at magistrates’ courts in England and Wales in the Outcomes by Offence data tool: December 2023, including breakdowns for specific offences.

However, magistrates’ court proceedings data held centrally is collated at a Local Justice Area (LJA) level only and is therefore not available for Bournemouth specifically. To view the number of prosecutions at courts located in the Dorset LJA, select ‘Dorset’ in the ‘Police Force Area’ filter (Dorset LJA is the only LJA in the Dorset police force area).
