Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many arrests were made for offences related to covert filming by smart glasses over the last 12 months.

Information on the number of arrests for offences related to covert filming is not held centrally.

The Home Office collects and publishes data on arrests for notifiable offences in England and Wales, by offence group and Police Force Area, as part of the ‘Police Powers and Procedures’ statistical series: Police powers and procedures England and Wales statistics - GOV.UK

However, it is unknown how many of these arrests involved offences related to covert filming.
