Crime: Children
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many crimes were committed by children aged 10 to 14 years in each year since 2000.
Answered by Sarah Jones
The Home Office does not hold this information.
Convictions are the responsibility of the Ministry of Justice. They publish information on convictions including by age group as part of the quarterly Criminal Justice Statistics release, which can be accessed here:
