There are currently no figures in the public domain.

National Statistics on prosecutions and convictions for the second and third quarter of 2020 are due for publication in November 2020 and February 2021, respectively; with detailed offence level data for the whole of 2020 planned for publication in May 2021. Our statisticians are currently considering what suitable data from court management information systems could be gathered and prioritised for quality assurance and publication before then that are related to Covid-19 impacts, including potentially prosecutions for offences under the act. They will notify users through regular statistical publications and updates will be announced on gov.uk.
