Female genital mutilation protection orders (annual total number of cases starting).

The data for the forced marriage and FGM in this publication are extracted from HMCTS’ management information system One Performance Truth. Recent data validation has confirmed that this system does not include all applications/orders made. The data is currently being reviewed, and the data will be modified accordingly from next quarter. Please treat with caution.

The data source for this measure and more detailed information can be found in the family court statistics quarterly publication.
