To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is the latest figure for recorded crime in Suffolk.

Mr. John Patten

Information for 1988 was published in tables 2.5 and 2.7 of "Criminal Statistics England and Wales, 1988", Cm 847, a copy of which is available in the Library. Further detailed figures for the 12 months to the end of September 1989 for local police force areas have also been placed in the Library. In the 12 months to September 1989, Suffolk police recorded 31,149 offences—125 more than in the previous 12 months.
