The Openbaar Ministerie (OM, Public Prosecution Service) will henceforth publish figures on its activities through a new \u2018Statistics\u2019 tab on its official website. With this, the OM aims to increase transparency and give society greater insight into, among other things, the handling of criminal cases and the issuing of permits.<\/p>\n

According to an OM press release, the new feature will be made available on Monday, November 16, 2026. Visitors can consult the data and filter it by subject and period. The statistics relate to the calendar years 2023, 2024 and 2025, and the judicial year 2025\u20132026.<\/p>\n

Greater transparency on prosecution policy<\/strong><\/h3>\n

According to the OM, recent social and political discussions on prosecution policy have made clear that there is a need for reliable, public and verifiable information.<\/p>\n

By publishing the figures, the OM aims to respond to requests from society for greater insight into its activities. The data are freely accessible and can be used for, among other things, scientific research, education and journalistic reporting.<\/p>\n

The availability of this information should also better enable the public to follow developments within prosecution policy and compare figures across different periods.<\/p>\n

No distinction by origin or social position<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The OM emphasises that the principle of equality is central to the performance of its duties. According to the prosecuting body, everyone is treated equally, regardless of social status, financial position or ethnic background.<\/p>\n

The OM says it does not register data that make distinctions based on ethnicity, wealth or social position. Such categories have therefore not been included in the published statistics.<\/p>\n

No personal data or data from ongoing criminal investigations are made public either.<\/p>\n

Further expansion of data<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The publication of the statistics forms part of a broader modernisation of the OM\u2019s digital services. The prosecuting body is working on a redesigned website that is intended to be more user-friendly and provide visitors with easier access to relevant information.<\/p>\n

In addition, the intention is to further expand the available statistical data in the coming period. Through this, the OM aims to provide society with a more extensive picture of its activities in the future.<\/p>\n

The figures can be consulted via the official website of the Openbaar Ministerie: www.openbaarministerie.sr\/nl\/statistieken<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
