Mr. Flook: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many incidents of (a) racially aggravated offences, (b) violent crime, (c) robbery of personal property and (d) drug offences have been recorded in (i) Avon and Somerset constabulary area and (ii) England in each year since 1997. [193871] Ms Blears: The available information is given in the tables. Avon and Somerset adopted the National Crime Recording Standard (NCRS) in October 2000 but the force acknowledged a reinforced effort from April 2001 which reflected a further increase in the number of offences recorded. The NCRS was introduced nationally across England and Wales in April 2002. An analysis of the impact of NCRS, both nationally and for individual forces, was published in two companion volumes to `Crime in England and Wales 2002-03'. Both volumes are available on the Home Office website. The volume covering the national picture is available at: http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pdfs2/rdsolr3103.pdf and the volume covering individual forces is available at: http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pdfs2/rdsolr3203.pdf For the reasons outlined, the information requested is provided in separate tables for Avon and Somerset and England.
