PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Hare Coursing: Fines (22 February 2018)

Question Asked

To ask the Attorney General, what the average fine was for convictions for offences relating to hare coursing in each police area in England in each year from 2014 to the last year for which data is available.

Asked by:
Dr Caroline Johnson (Conservative)

Answer

Data on fines is recorded by the Ministry of Justice for these offences, rather than the AGO. Officials at the MoJ have advised us that there were no fines in 2014; four in 2015 and none in 2016. The MoJ does not provide information on amounts of fines when the samples are statistically this small.
