Written question asked by Ellie Reeves (Labour) on Tuesday, 27 February 2018, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Thursday, 1 March 2018. It was answered by Robert Buckland (Conservative) on Tuesday, 13 March 2018 on behalf of the Attorney General.
Personal Injury: Fraud
- Question
-
To ask the Attorney General, how many proven fraudulent personal injury claims were made by (a) horse-riders, (b) pedestrians, (c) cyclists and (d) other vulnerable road users in the last 12 months.
- Answer
-
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) does not maintain a central record of the number of prosecutions for personal injury insurance frauds. Nor is any record held to show if defendants were purporting to have sustained an injury on a road when making a fraudulent claim. This information could only be obtained by examining CPS case files, which would incur disproportionate cost.
