Hi Jessica
You requested
How many people have been incarcerated or sentenced for the non-payment of
fines?
Please provide data for all people incarcerated for the non-payment of
fines.
Whilst we are unable to supply the number of people as we don’t record
when an individual is incarcerated but we can provide the number of orders
made and entered in our system.
Do you want this information as an alternative to your request
regards
