<p>The Ministry of Justice publishes data on the number of convictions for criminal
offences covering the period requested. The latest data available, until year ending
June 2023, can be obtained in the following published tool: <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/65bd0675704282000d752143/outcomes-by-offence-june-2023.xlsx"
target="_blank">Outcomes by Offence tool: June 2023</a>.</p><p>However, it is not
possible to separately identify convictions for ‘domestic abuse’ because the information
held centrally is related to the offence in law for which a defendant is convicted
for. Domestic abuse related offences can be prosecuted under a wide range of legally
defined offences. This information may be held on court records, but to examine individual
court records would be of disproportionate costs.</p>
