To ask the Secretary of State for Justice how many individuals were accommodated in the Peterborough city council area under the auspices of the Cambridgeshire Probation Service MAPPA arrangements at (a) level 1, (b) level 2 and (c) level 3 as at 31 December in each year since 2001. (178644)

The available data is not collated by council area or by parliamentary constituency. Data on offenders in the three levels of the multi-agency public protection arrangements (MAPPA) are collated geographically by MAPPA area. MAPPA areas are coterminous with police force and probation areas. This data is published in (MAPPA) annual reports which are available in the House Libraries and at

http://www.probation.justice.gov.uk/output/page30.asp

The Peterborough city council area is not coterminous with any area, but is covered by the data relating to Cambridgeshire area as published in its MAPPA annual report. MAPPA data are collected on 31 March each year, for the period covering the previous year.

Figures relating to MAPPA level 3 were not collected until the period covering 2002-03; figures relating to other MAPPA levels were not collected separately until 2004-05.
