Decisions by the prosecutor

Statistics
Discontinued:
The statistics on decisions by the prosecutor are comprised of two parts: statistics on cases concluded by the prosecutor and statistics on waived charges. The first mentioned part contains data on cases concluded by the prosecutor and on decisions of the prosecutor by prosecuting office and offence. The latter part contains data on consequentially waived charges and on charges waived on other grounds by reason for the waving. The statistical unit in the statistics on cases concluded by the prosecutor is the case, while in the statistics on waived charges it is the person against whom charges have been waived.

Detailed tables of the discontinued statistics are available in the StatFin archive database

The archive contains the database tables that we no longer update.
