Facebook: Prosecutions
- Question
-
To ask the Attorney General, how many people were prosecuted for offences relating to posts made on Facebook in each year for which records exist.
- Answer
-
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) does not hold data on the number of people prosecuted for offences relating to social media posts. This information could only be obtained by an examination of CPS case files, which would incur disproportionate cost.
