Abstract

The purpose of PoCA is the confiscation and payment to the State of benefits identified as proceeds of crime.

Only finalised orders are included. Orders relating to individuals have been anonymised. Information relating to Environment Agency Function and Offence is not routinely available in data entered before mid-2015.

Lineage

The Proceeds of Crime dataset is based on the result of applications to the court by the Environment Agency for orders requiring convicted offenders to repay the financial benefits they received as a result of their offending. Once an order to recover the proceeds of crime has been granted, the details of the order are recorded on a database. The Proceeds of Crime dataset is an extract of this database in spreadsheet format.
