The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what estimate her Department has made of the number of people referred to the Prevent programme more than once.

Answered by Dan Jarvis

Based on data provided to the Home Office by Counter Terrorism Policing Headquarters (CTPHQ), it is estimated that between 2015 – 2025, circa 12% of all individuals on the Prevent Case Management database had multiple Prevent cases.

This data is an extract from a live database and as such is a snapshot in time. The Prevent Case Management database is used to record details of all referrals to Prevent and the subsequent outcomes.
