	uin	194082
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/11/2018 answer text <p>We do not keep information on gang related crime, but trends in knife crime, gun crime and homicide help give an indication of possible gang related crime in Wales and North Wales.</p><p>The latest year-on-year data comparing June 2018 to June 2017 show that there is a bigger rise in knife crime in Wales (30%) compared to England and Wales as a whole (12%). Knife crime in North Wales has remained broadly stable in the same period, with 268 cases in the year to June 2018 (-1%, down from 270). When looking at the 5-year trend, knife crime in Wales has almost doubled between 2013/14 and 2017/18 (61% in E&amp;W), and this is even more in North Wales specifically, where the number of knife crime cases increased from 100 in 2013/14 to 257 in 2017/18.</p><p>Whilst gun crime in Wales has risen by 7% between 2013/14 and 2016/17, this is lower than the rise witnessed in England and Wales (31%). Gun crime in North Wales has gone down in the same period but note that these are generally low volumes (from 18 cases in 2013/14 to 13 in 2016/17).</p><p>Finally, homicides in Wales more than doubled between 2013/14 and 2017/18, from 16 to 35 cases. This is a bigger proportionate rise than England and Wales, where homicides increased by 36% in the same period. An increase in homicides is also witnessed in North Wales, but again, these are low volumes (from 3 cases in 2013/14 to 12 in 2017/18).</p> answering member constituency Louth and Horncastle answering member printed Victoria Atkins question first answered 29/11/2018 17:26:07 answering member 4399 label Biography information for Victoria Atkins
