The following table shows the information reported to the Ministry of Justice, previously Home Office, Court Proceedings Database on persons sentenced under section 111 of the Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000 (previously section 4 of the Crime (Sentences) Act 1997) in England and Wales for a third offence of domestic burglary in the years 2000 to 2005. Data are not available before 2000, as the Crown court computer system was not updated to recognise these sentences until then.
The data are published in table 2.6 of the Statistical Bulletin, “Sentencing Statistics 2005”. It can be located at the following:
