To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, how many business start-ups there were in City of York local authority area in each year since 2008.

Matthew Hancock

There is no single data source that comprehensively measures all business start-ups within the UK. However, as a near proxy BankSearch collates data on the number of new business bank accounts opened in Great Britain. This can be used as an indicative measure of business start-up activity and is the most comprehensive source available to BIS.

In the following table, estimated numbers of new business start-ups in the York local authority area are shown using the BankSearch data.

Year	Estimated number of business start-ups in York authority area
2008	1,100
2009	1,100
2010	1,300
2011	1,400
2012	1,300
2013	1,100

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the crime detection rate was for North Yorkshire police force in each year since 2004-05.

Norman Baker

The information requested is shown in the following table.

Most of this information was also published by the Home Office in its "Crimes
Detected in England and Wales, 2012/13" bulletin. Overall detection rates are
available in table 3 for all police forces from the year 2005/06 onwards.

Detections have now been replaced by a new outcomes framework, which includes a
broader range of "outcomes" for crimes dealt with by the police, and therefore
provides greater transparency on how crimes are resolved. The former detections
framework only covered a subset of the new outcomes and therefore of the ways
crimes are "resolved". Statistics for the year 2013/14 onwards will focus on
the new outcomes framework, rather than detections.
