HC Deb 02 December 1971 vol 827 cc140-1W Mr. Laurance Reed
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many
people have been prosecuted, how many convicted, and how many
executed, for crimes against the State since 1900; under what
Acts; and how many of the executions have taken place in the
past 20 years.  Mr. Carlisle  "Crimes against the State" do not
form an identifiable statistical category. If my hon. Friend
will let me know the offences he has in mind, I will see what
information is readily available.  There has been no execution
in England and Wales for an offence other than murder in the
past 20 years.
