 "summary": "The share of offences the police in England and Wales recorded in a year that ended in each outcome – charged or summonsed, an out-of-court disposal, no suspect identified and the rest – for the latest three years to June, as each was first published, from the Home Office's crime outcomes statistics.",
 "unit": "percent",
 "chart": "hbar",
 "volatile": false,
 "status": "Official statistics",
 "notes": [
  "Offences the police recorded in each year, by the outcome assigned to them by the end of it, as Table 1.1 gives them: an offence recorded late in the year has had less time to be assigned one, so the share not yet assigned an outcome is largest for the latest year. Each year is as the Home Office first published it and is not revised, so it may differ from later totals for the same year. Fraud is not included.",
  "The Home Office's Table 2.1 counts outcomes assigned in the year to offences recorded at any time, a different measure with a higher charge rate; the hub shows Table 1.1, the measure its release leads with.",
  "Police recorded crime is not accredited official statistics, as the Home Office's tables say."
