Mr. Laurance Reed
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many people have been prosecuted, how many convicted, and how many executed, for crimes against the State since 1900; under what Acts; and how many of the executions have taken place in the past 20 years.
Mr. Carlisle
"Crimes against the State" do not form an identifiable statistical category. If my hon. Friend will let me know the offences he has in mind, I will see what information is readily available.
There has been no execution in England and Wales for an offence other than murder in the past 20 years.
