These factors include trafficking, gangs and child sexual exploitation. However, this information gives no specific indication of county lines involvement or a risk to the child’s life. The information in fact indicates that the child has been referred and assessed by the local authority and that these issues were a factor at the end of assessment.</p><p> </p><p>Information on the number of factors identified at the end of assessment, including trafficking, gangs and child sexual exploitation, is published in table C3 of the ‘Characteristics of children in need’ statistical release, which can be viewed at the following link: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-children-in-need" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-children-in-need</a>.</p><p> </p>

The Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 came into effect on 25 November 2012 and introduced two new offences of stalking, by way of Section 2A and Section 4A, into the Protection from Harassment Act 1997. The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) does not hold any data which shows the number of defendants charged with and prosecuted for offences of stalking or the number of these who were previously convicted of similar offences. However, management information is held showing the number of offences of stalking in which a prosecution commenced from each year from 2013/14. The table below shows the number of these offences to the latest available year, 2021/22. <table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>2013-2014</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2014-2015</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2015-2016</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2016-2017</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2017-2018</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2018-2019</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2019-2020</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2020-2021</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2021-2022</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Protection from Harassment Act 1997 { 2A(1) and (4) }</p></td><td><p>529</p></td><td><p>676</p></td><td><p>643</p></td><td><p>510</p></td><td><p>921</p></td><td><p>1,246</p></td><td><p>1,257</p></td><td><p>1,326</p></td><td><p>1,741</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Protection from Harassment Act 1997 { 4A(1)(a)(b)(i) and (5) }</p></td><td><p>65</p></td><td><p>133</p></td><td><p>128</p></td><td><p>83</p></td><td><p>172</p></td><td><p>313</p></td><td><p>331</p></td><td><p>424</p></td><td><p>563</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Protection from Harassment Act 1997 { 4A(1)(a)(b)(ii) and (5) }</p></td><td><p>149</p></td><td><p>294</p></td><td><p>331</p></td><td><p>366</p></td><td><p>523</p></td><td><p>649</p></td><td><p>700</p></td><td><p>762</p></td><td><p>1,046</p></td></tr><tr><td colspan="10"><p>Data Source: CPS Case Management Information System</p></td></tr></tbody></table>The figures relate to the number of offences and not the number of individual defendants.

The 2012 guidance, titled <em>Joint Enterprise charging decisions: Principal, secondary and inchoate liability</em>, was published following a public consultation.</p><p> </p><p>The guidance was revised in 2018, to reflect a significant change in the law brought about by the Supreme Court’s decision in <em>R v Jogee</em>. The revisions were informed by another public consultation and the title of the guidance was changed to <em>Secondary Liability: charging decisions on principals and accessories</em>, to reflect the terminology used by the Court.</p><p> </p><p>The guidance was revised further in 2019, following a stakeholder consultation. The main revision related to guidance in respect of children and persons with learning disabilities, autism and mental health issues.</p><p> </p><p>(b) The CPS guidance ‘Decision making in ‘gang’ related offences' is regularly reviewed and was last updated in November 2021. The guidance urges caution about the use of the word ‘gang’, explaining how it can properly be deployed in a prosecution, where substantiated by the evidence and relevant to a matter in issue in the proceedings. In drafting the guidance, the CPS assessed the potential effect of using ‘gang’ in proceedings and identified that the term is used in legislation and by criminal justice partners.</p><p>The guidance clearly sets out that, given the negative connotations of the term ‘gang’, prosecutors should not refer to a group as a ‘gang’ in proceedings unless there is evidence to support the assertion. However, prosecutors must also ensure that where there is admissible evidence of gang membership, the case is put on a basis that reflects the often very serious gravity of the offending.</p><p> </p><p>[1] https://www.cps.gov.uk/prosecution-guidance</p>
