Offences against Children: Compensation

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what estimate his Department has made of the number of private prosecutions brought for compensation for victims of child sexual abuse in January 2017.

Answer

It is not possible to identify private prosecutions in the courts proceedings database; this would require a manual search of court records which would be of disproportionate cost.
