Question to the Home Office:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what are the most recent statistics available for hate crime, broken down by category; and what were the statistics for the previous three periods for which figures are available.
The Home Office collects and publishes statistics annually on the number of hate crime offences recorded by the police in England and Wales, broken down by monitored strand, in the ‘Hate Crime, England and Wales’ statistical bulletin. The latest available data, covering the period 2011/12 (when the data collection began) to 2020/21, can be found in ‘Table 2’ of the data tables, available attached.
