HC Deb 05 December 1922 vol 159 cc1527-8W
Mr. FOOT

asked the Home Secretary whether there are any statistics available showing the number of prosecutions taken, respectively, in London and the provinces against women in respect of alleged solicitation and annoyance?

Mr. BRIOGEMAN

Table XXIII of the Judicial (Criminal) Statistics gives the number of women proceeded against as common prostitutes or night-walkers in each police district. Appendix B gives the statutory enactments under which such proceedings are taken.
