The Secretary of State for the Home Department (Mrs Theresa May)
The report of the National Crime Agency (NCA) Remuneration Review Body for 2016 has been published today. In line with my letter setting the body’s remit, it has made recommendations on pay and allowances for NCA officers designated with operational powers. I wish to express my thanks to the Chairman and members of the review body for their careful consideration of the evidence.
The review body received evidence from the NCA, the Home Office, Her Majesty’ Treasury and the relevant trade unions and has recommended an across-the-board increase of 1%for NCA officers and a 1% increase in London weighting. I accept their recommendations in full.
The report also sets the agenda for further reform of the NCA’s pay structure and we will continue to support the NCA to develop the workforce needed to tackle serious and organised crime in the 21st century.
Copies of the NCA Remuneration Review Body’s report are available in the Parliamentary Vote Office and at www.gov.uk.
