Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, how many UK nationals were provided with consular assistance after reporting that they had been a victim of (a) assault and (b) theft in each calendar year from 2011 to 2022 inclusive.

The number of British nationals provided with consular assistance after reporting that they had been a victim of (a) assault and (b) theft in each calendar year from 2011 to 2022 inclusive is below. Pre-2016, victims of theft cases were recorded within a broader case category. As individual case records from that period have been deleted in line with data retention rules, we are unable to provide headline annual figures for 'theft' cases.
