To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department in how many domestic violence cases prosecuted in the last five years perpetrators were charged with other crimes. (76727)

I have been asked to respond to this question.

The records held by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) identify the number of defendants proceeded against for offences of domestic violence, but provide no information on other offences committed by the same defendants. This information could only be obtained by locating and examining every relevant file in each CPS office, which would involve disproportionate costs (Code of Practice on access to Government information, part 2, clause 9).

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department for which other crimes domestic violence perpetrators have been (a) investigated, (b) charged and (c) sentenced in the last five years. (76732)

The Home Office does not routinely keep this type of data centrally. However, a study conducted in 2005-06, using data from by the Offender Management system (OASys), found that there was a correlation between offenders who were physically violent towards their partner and a wide range of other offences. The table lists the types of co-related offences that were identified by the study.
