The request was refused by Crown Prosecution Service.

Dear Crown Prosecution Service,

Can you please inform me of how many private criminal prosecutions has the CPS ;

- reviewed and considered no CPS involvement required

- taken over and discontinued the prosecution

- taken over and continued the prosecution to trial

Please give the figures on a year by year basis from 1985

Yours faithfully,
