Mr. MacShane

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many crimes of burglary were reported in Rotherham constituency in each year since 2001. (278080)

Mr. Alan Campbell

The available information relates to offences recorded by the police in the Rotherham local authority area and is given in the following table. The National Crime Recording Standard was introduced in April 2002 and data for 2002-03 onwards are therefore not directly comparable with the data for earlier years.
