Christopher Stacey LL.B, LL.M

Dear Disclosure and Barring Service,

For each of the financial years since 2012, broken down by the level of check*, I would like to know the number of convictions for “Loitering or soliciting for purposes of prostitution” under section 1 of the Street Offences Act 1959, that were disclosed, broken down by how long ago the convictions were received:

1. In the last 2 Years
2. Over 2 Years ago but less than or equal to 5 years
3. Over 5 Years ago but less than or equal to 10 years
4. Over 10 Years ago but less than or equal to 15 years
5. Over 15 Years ago but less than or equal to 20 years
6. Over 20 Years ago but less than or equal to 25 years
7. Over 25 Years ago but less than or equal to 30 years
8. Over 30 Years ago

* For the purposes of this request, “broken down by the level of check” means broken down by basic, standard, enhanced, enhanced plus childrens’ barred list, enhanced plus adults’ barred list and enhanced plus both barred lists. If it is not possible to provide the ‘enhanced’ level figures in this way, group where necessary.

Yours faithfully,

Christopher Stacey
Co-director
