Written question asked by Lord Roberts of Llandudno (Liberal Democrat), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Lord West of Spithead (Labour) on Tuesday, 17 March 2009.
Wales: Muggings and Burglaries
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty's Government how many reported muggings and burglaries there were in Wales in (a) 2006, (b) 2007, (c) 2008, and (d) 2009 to date.
- Answer
-
The available information comes from the police recorded crime statistics. Mugging is a popular rather than a legal term and it comprises of robbery, attempted robbery and snatch theft from the person. Police recorded crime does not separately record the small category of snatch theft. Data for police recorded offences of robbery and burglary in Wales have therefore been provided in the table for the past three financial years. Data for 2008-09 are not yet available.
Offences of robbery and burglary recorded by the police in Wales—2005-06 to 2007-08 Number of offences Period Robbery Burglary 2005-06 1,137 26,318 2006-07 1,354 26,774 2007-08 1,260 26,621
