The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will make an estimate of the number of businesses in the Yorkshire and the Humber region that experienced fraud in the last financial year.

Answered by Dan Jarvis

Home Office does not hold data on the number of businesses in the Yorkshire and the Humber region that experienced fraud in the last financial year.

The Economic Crime Survey 2024 is a representative survey of businesses, which is currently conducting fieldwork, and will build the evidence base on the incidents and nature of fraud against businesses in the UK.
