answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/10/2014 answer text <p>The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) do not keep a central electronic record of the charges considered by prosecutors following a request for a pre-charge decision (PCD) by the police. To identify the number of PCDs in which a charge relating to the downloading of indecent images of children was considered would require a manual exercise to review individual PCD files which would attract a disproportionate cost. For the same reason, it is not possible to provide data related to the grounds for declining to prosecute PCD referrals involving allegations of downloaded indecent images.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South Swindon answering member printed Mr Robert Buckland grouped question UIN 211048 question first answered 23/10/2014 10:52:30 answering member 4106 label Biography information for Sir Robert Buckland
