Review how rape and sexual offence information is recorded

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 30 September 2026

A review should examine how rape and sexual offences are recorded across police, prosecution and courts, and seek to establish consistent reporting of cases, charges, prosecutions, convictions and other outcomes.

We want the Government to identify gaps and inconsistencies and explain clearly what happens to cases from reporting through investigation, prosecution and final outcome.
