Diana Johnson – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Diana Johnson on 2014-05-07.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what estimate she has made of the number of incidents of domestic violence involving a legally owned (a) firearm and (b) airgun in each of the last five years.

Norman Baker

The requested information is not available centrally.

The Home Office is notified by police forces in England and Wales of how many
domestic abuse incidents they have dealt with but it is not possible from this
information to say how many involved firearms (whether legally owned or not) or
air weapons.
