PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Homicide and Sexual Offences: Foreign Nationals (18 April 2016)

To ask the Attorney General, what proportion of (a) murder, (b) rape and (c) sexual assault cases were prosecuted where the defendant was a non-EU national in each year since 2010.

Asked by:
Karl Turner (Independent)

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) does not maintain any centrally held data that would enable the identification of the nationality of any defendants, whether they are an EU national or not. Such information could only be obtained through a manual search of records which would incur disproportionate cost.
