Assuming that's true, greater willingness of the CPS to prosecute is definitely one factor

As is better support for victims, leading to greater willingness of victims to come forward

Plus the impact of the Sexual Offences Act 2003, which changed various definitions

Anyway, I very much doubt the accuracy of your statistic.
