§ Mr. Wheelerasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what plans he has for changing the area analyses of the crime figures.
§ Mr. HurdI have no plans to change the area analyses of the recorded crime figures which are published annually by police force area in the Home Office "Statistical Bulletin" issued in March and later in the year in more detail in "Criminal Statistics". Separate figures for London boroughs will continue to be placed in the Library of the House each quarter. More detailed analyses of the figures may be prepared and published from time to time.
