HC Deb 23 June 1997 vol 296 c361W
Mr. Kemp

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is the ratio of reported sexual attacks and offences to population in(a) designated new towns and (b) other towns of similar size. [4467]

Mr. Michael

Information on recorded crime in England and Wales is collated centrally only on the basis of police force areas. Individual police forces do collate more localised data but this would not necessarily equate to new town boundaries.
