HC Deb 20 July 2000 vol 354 c318W
Mr. Gordon Prentice

To ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department what estimate she has made of the number of actions for nuisance brought in the last 12 months by local authorities for which figures are available where professional witnesses of fact were involved. [131170]

Jane Kennedy

The Court Service does not collect statistics on the reasons for the issue of possession actions such as nuisance, nor the type of witnesses involved in such cases. This information is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost to the Department.
