Report Fraud
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what data her Department holds on the number of incidents reported to Report Fraud that were not taken forward for investigation over Report Fraud's first three months of operation.
Answered by Sarah Jones
The Home Office regularly reviews the performance of Report Fraud with the City of London Police and will continue to engage with them to ensure the service is delivering improved outcomes for victims and strengthening the national response to fraud. The service offers better management information to track and monitor service performance and a new performance dashboard which supports the Home Office in monitoring outcomes and identifying emerging fraud threats.
This does not yet include data on reports taken and not taken forward by police forces for investigations.
