European Arrest Warrants

(asked on 24th May 2016) - View Source

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 23 May 2016 to Question 37288, if she will publish statistics on how many European Arrest Warrant surrenders to and from each UK law enforcement agency of each type there have been in each region.

These statistics are provided by the National Crime Agency on their website at: http://www.nationalcrimeagency.gov.uk/publications/european-arrest-warrant-statistics However, this does not provide statistics on surrenders by law enforcement and offence - these are recorded separately.

The following figures are therefore based on surrenders to and by relevant police force areas (excluding those law enforcement agencies that sit outside of regional police force areas (i.e., British Transport Police)). This, and the fact that these figures are taken from statistics for the relevant fiscal years, rather than the calendar years, explains the slight variation from the figures previously released.
