HC Deb 17 June 1993 vol 226 cc665-6W
Ms Ruddock

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many prostitution-related offences were recorded in 1992; and how many resulted in(a) prosecutions and (b) convictions.

Mr. Maclean

Information on the number of prostitution related offences is not recorded centrally.

The table shows the number of "known offenders"—those cautioned and found guilty—and the number of defendants prosecuted and convicted in England and Wales for prostitution-related offences in 1991.

1992 data will not be available until the autumn.
