Estimates from the CSEW are used by policy makers, the police, academics and many other interested parties on a range of topics covering crime and the criminal justice system in England and Wales. However, we now need to review how well the CSEW meets the needs of the people and organisations using the survey. 

This consultation will give users an opportunity to influence the content of the survey and planned methodological changes. 

We would very much welcome your feedback to help us determine the best way forward for the CSEW.   

Please respond to the consultation at Office for National Statistics - Citizen Space (ons.gov.uk)

The consultation closes at midnight on Sunday 21 August 2022.

Date: Wednesday 15 June
