    Ann Coffey – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

    The below Parliamentary question was asked by Ann Coffey on 2015-10-13.

    To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many nominals in County Line investigations conducted or led by the National Crime Agency have been under 18; and what the age, gender and regional breakdown is of each such person.

    Karen Bradley

    The National Crime Agency does not conduct County Lines investigations and therefore does not hold this information. However, the NCA play a critical role in tackling child sexual abuse working closely with law enforcement partners to tackle this abhorrent crime.

    Jeremy Wright

    The proportion of offenders given custody for sexual offences has increased since 2003.

    The Government takes very seriously all matters relating to the sexual abuse of children and adults. Our laws in these areas are rightly robust and clear. The 2003 Act, which came into effect in May 2004, significantly modernised and strengthened the laws on sexual offences in England and Wales. We have already introduced automatic life sentences for a second serious sexual or violent offence, and we have announced plans to end automatic early release for child rapists, terrorists and all dangerous offenders.

    The number of offenders found guilty at the Crown Court in Greater Manchester police force area, for sexual offences with the offence codes specified from 2008 to 2012 (latest data available), can be viewed in the table.

    Court proceedings statistics for the year 2013 are planned to be published by the Ministry of Justice in May 2014.
