HMRC does not record the values of goods seized from fulfilment houses. Goods have been seized where HMRC believes customs obligations have been contravened. This includes the inability of the fulfilment house to link the goods to an import declaration made to HMRC. Without this link, the value of the goods declared at import is unknown. HMRC will destroy all seized goods after an appropriate period of time has elapsed, unless the importer of the goods can demonstrate it is compliant.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/57", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Young of Cookham"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Young of Cookham"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-05-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-05-13T16:21:04.157Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-04-29", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Electronic Commerce: Tax Evasion"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Young of Cookham on 25 April, what was the value of stock belonging to third parties seized from 14 fulfilment houses by HMRC; whether that stock has been, or will be, destroyed; and if not, what they intend to do with that stock.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1879", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Lucas"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Lucas"} ], "uin" : "HL15397"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1121598", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Treasury"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1121598/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The information requested falls within the responsibility of the UK Statistics Authority. I have asked the Authority to reply.<\/p>
<\/p>
Dear Lord Lucas,<\/p>
As National Statistician and Chief Executive of the UK Statistics Authority, I am responding to your Parliamentary Questions asking (a) how many crimes recorded in the last five years for which data are available involved the use of rifles; and in each case, (i) what types of rifles were involved, (ii) how such rifles were obtained, and (iii) what types of crime such rifles were used to commit (HL12712)<\/strong>; and (b) how many crimes recorded in the last five years for which data are available involved the use of blades; and in each case, (i) what types of blades were involved, (ii) how such blades were obtained, and (iii) what types of crime such blades were used to commit (HL12713)<\/strong>.<\/p> Although the data are collected by the Home Office, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) publishes figures on the number of offences recorded by the police involving the use of firearms (including rifles) and knives or sharp instruments.<\/p> Table 1 shows the number of offences recorded by the police in England and Wales involving the use of a rifle, in each of the latest five years that data are currently available. These data were published across several releases, the latest of which being Table 9 of the \u2018Offences involving the use of weapons: data tables<\/em>\u2019[1] release for the year ending March 2017. Data for the year ending March 2018 are due to be published on 7 February 2019.<\/p> Table 2 shows the latest available data on the number of offences recorded by the police in England and Wales involving the use of a knife or sharp instrument. To provide a consistent time-series, these data exclude offences recorded by Greater Manchester Police, who recently uncovered a technical issue affecting their recording of offences involving knives and sharp instruments. These data were published alongside the \u2018Crime in England and Wales: year ending June 2018<\/em>\u2019 bulletin in Table F3a of \u2018Other related tables<\/em>\u2019[2].<\/p> The police recorded knife or sharp instrument offences data are submitted to the Home Office via an additional special collection. This special collection includes the offences: homicide; attempted murder; threats to kill; assault with injury and assault with intent to cause serious harm; robbery; rape; and sexual assault. Although not all offences are included, those selected are thought to cover most offences involving a knife or sharp instrument.<\/p> Data are not available in relation to the type of rifle or knife or sharp instrument that was involved in the offences recorded by the police or how the weapon had been obtained by the perpetrator(s).<\/p> Yours sincerely,<\/p> John Pullinger<\/strong><\/p> <\/p> <\/p> Table 1: Offences recorded by the police in England and Wales in which rifles were reported to have been used, by offence group, year ending March 2013 to year ending March 2017[3]<\/strong>,[4]<\/strong><\/sup><\/strong><\/p> <\/sup><\/p>
