Criminal justice statistics quarterly

The annual reports (year ending December) provide a series of data tools at a more detailed outcome and offence level. These were revised in January 2024 to reflect work undertaken to develop and deliver significant improvements to the criminal court sentencing data. Please use data tools alongside the December 2022 and June 2023 publications for the latest and most accurate statistics due to revisions of previously published data. Most of these tools have a time series of 2010-2022.
