Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many and what proportion of burglaries were committed in the (a) Vale of Clwyd constituency and (b) North Wales Police area in each year since 2010; and how many and what proportion of those burglaries involved a violent assault.

The Home Office collects data on the number of burglaries recorded by the police in England and Wales and these data are published quarterly. It is not possible to separately identify the number of burglaries that involved a violent assault in the information that we hold centrally. However, data is available on the number of aggravated burglary offences. These includes burglaries in which an offender is in possession of any firearm or imitation firearm, other weapon or explosive at the time of committing the offence.

Data for North Wales Police Force Area and for Vale of Clwyd constituency (Denbighshire Community Safety Partnership (CSP) encompasses this constituency) can be found in open data tables here back to the financial year 2002/03:
