The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions she has had with police forces on the adequacy of police resources allocated to tackling fraud.

Answered by Sarah Jones

Tackling fraud is a clear priority for this Government, and I am committed to working with police forces to ensure resources are in place to effectively combat this crime and support victims.

That is why we are publishing a new, expanded Fraud Strategy to strengthen our national response to this crime.
