In terms of the recorded crime statistics, there is no requirement for any police force to notify the Home Office of ‘honour’ crimes. It is the offence as defined by law which will be recorded by the police and reported to the Home Office e.g. serious wounding, common assault, etc. Details of the circumstances for individual offences are not collected centrally.
