answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/01/2021 answer text <p>The Crown Prosecution Service (‘CPS’) collects data showing the outcome of charging decisions, including cases flagged as rape where a decision not to prosecute was taken for public interest reasons. However, the CPS has no central record of the number of cases or suspects where a confession to the offence of rape (or any other offence) has been admitted. This information could only be obtained by an examination of CPS case files, which would incur disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p><p>The table below therefore shows the number of rape-flagged suspects where a no prosecution decision for public interest reasons was the outcome. The proportion of decisions where no further action is taken due to public interest reasons is fewer than 2% of all decisions. However, data on cases in which a confession has been admitted is not available.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>No Prosecution - Public Interest</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010-2011</p></td><td><p>128</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011-2012</p></td><td><p>88</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012-2013</p></td><td><p>91</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013-2014</p></td><td><p>98</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014-2015</p></td><td><p>93</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015-2016</p></td><td><p>109</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016-2017</p></td><td><p>84</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017-2018</p></td><td><p>65</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2018-2019</p></td><td><p>60</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2019-2020</p></td><td><p>51</p></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2"><p>Data Source: CPS Case Management Information System</p></td></tr></tbody></table> answering member constituency Northampton North answering member printed Michael Ellis question first answered 13/01/2021 09:30:39 answering member 4116 label Biography information for Sir Michael Ellis

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/10/2020 answer text <p>The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) collects finalised prosecutions data showing the sex of defendants for cases flagged as involving domestic abuse. Some, more limited, information is also available showing the identified relationship between defendant and complainant and whether the relationship is between people of the same or different sex.</p><p> </p><p>The table below shows the number of defendants prosecuted for domestic abuse where a relationship was identified as same sex (partner, ex-partner, spouse/civil partner or former spouse/civil partner), during each of the last ten years. It also highlights the number of defendants where the relationship has been recorded.
