HC Deb 23 November 2000 vol 357 c290W
Mr. Brady

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many attacks on elderly people have been committed in the last year by convicted criminals who were on early release from prison at the time of the attack. [139811]

Mr. Charles Clarke

This information is not held centrally, and could be collected only at disproportionate cost. Central statistical databases do not hold information on the characteristics of the victims of crimes other than homicide and certain sexual offences.
