National Business Crime Centre: Statistics
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she plans to publish annual performance metrics for the National Business Crime Centre to assess the effectiveness of additional funding.
Answered by Dame Diana Johnson
We are investing £2 million over three financial years (25/26 – 27/28) in the National Business Crime Centre (NBCC) which provides a resource for both police and businesses to learn, share and support each other to prevent and combat crime. We are currently working with the NBCC to agree details of how the funding will be used.
Funding will be provided through the usual Government funding process, via a grant agreement. This includes an agreed delivery plan and Key Performance Indicators, and ongoing monitoring throughout the period of the grant. An evaluation will be undertaken to ensure the aims of the funding are delivered, and it represents appropriate use of public money.
