National Vehicle Crime Intelligence Service
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment her Department has made of the governance arrangements applying to the National Vehicle Crime Intelligence Service, including its funding model.
Answered by Sarah Jones
We fully recognise the serious and growing threat that freight crime poses to businesses, drivers, and the wider economy.
The Government does not fund NaVCIS. Instead NaVCIS is funded by the industry, including finance and leasing companies, insurers and hauliers.
NaVCIS is a national policing unit that provides dedicated specialist intelligence, and it engages with a range of partners to tackle organised vehicle crime.
