§ Mr. Bob RussellTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many people have been convicted of offences involving racing pigeons in each of the last three years for which figures are available under the criminal law section of the Theft Act 1969 and section 1 of the Criminal Damage Act 1971; and if he will make a statement. [95319]
§ Mr. Charles ClarkeThe information is not collected centrally. Although the Home Office Court Proceedings database identifies the legislation under which a defendant is proceeded against, it generally does not hold information on the characteristics of individual cases dealt with by the courts.
