Answer
Chris PhilpThe Home Office does not hold all the information requested.
The Home Office collects and publishes data on fixed penalty notices issued and other outcomes for motoring offences, including noise offences.
These data are available as part of the ‘Police Powers and Procedures: Other Pace’ bulletin.
This information can be found in table FPN_03 of the motoring offences data tables.
