Offensive Weapons: Suffolk
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many incidents of knife crime were reported in Suffolk in each of the last five years.
- Answer
-
It is not possible to identify those offences that are knife-related from the data centrally collected on overall recorded crime. However, since April 2007, police forces have been providing separate aggregate data on serious violence involving knives. Home Office statisticians will assess the quality of these data and it is planned that figures for 2007-08 will be published in the main crime bulletin in July 2008.
