Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what estimate he has made of the number of arrests for violent antisemitic hate crimes in (a) 2016, (b) 2017 and (c) 2018.
The Home Office collects and publishes statistics on the number of arrests, conducted by each police force in England and Wales, on an annual basis.
Data are held at the offence group level only (for example ‘Violence against the person’ and ‘Public order’ offences). Information on the number of arrests for hate crimes – and further details of the nature of an offence – are not held centrally.
Data are published in the ‘Police Powers and Procedures, England and Wales’ statistical bulletin, the latest of which can be accessed here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-powers-and-procedures-england-and-wales-year-ending-31-march-2018
