Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will make an estimate of the proportion of investigations by the Independent Police Complaints Commission that result in at least one charge being laid; and if she will make a statement.

This data is not collated. Information about CPS referrals and charging decisions in relation to IPCC investigations is regularly recorded manually by operational staff on an IPCC database for internal use, however the data is partial and in a number of cases CPS charging decisions remain under consideration.

The IPCC has offered to write to the Member providing relevant management information on the issue.
