HC Deb 20 January 1976 vol 903 c380W
Mr. Stonehouse

asked the Attorney-General if he will publish in the Official Report the list of cases instituted by the Director of Public Prosecutions which concluded in January 1975 and in December 1975, respectively, and in which acquittals were obtained.

The Attorney-General

A complete answer to this Question could be obtained only at disproportionate cost. So far as the Central Criminal Court's concerned, however, in January 1975, 25 cases instituted by the Director of Public Prosecutions were completed, involving 62 persons of whom 13 were acquitted; and in December 1975, 36 such cases were completed, involving 82 persons of whom 20 persons were acquitted.
