Quarterly Statistical Bulletin

The PPS produces quarterly statistics on the activity of the Service, including caseloads and prosecutorial decisions. Where appropriate, these statistics are accompanied with detailed notes which provide an explanation of the relevant PPS processes and procedures.

Each set of statistics includes current financial year figures which are provisional and may be subject to slight revision until the finalised figures for the full financial year are published. Comparisons for the equivalent period in the previous financial year are also included.

The latest statistics for the 2019/20 financial year (i.e. 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020) were published on 9 July 2020. These statistics are currently under review and quarterly releases have been postponed pending that review.
