Asked by: Anas Sarwar (Labour - Glasgow Central)
Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will place a copy of the Beloff Review on UK asset recovery in the Library.
Answered by Karen Bradley
Internal Government advice is not published and therefore we do not intend to
place a copy of Mr Beloff QC's opinion in the Library. The Government's Serious
and Organised Crime Strategy sets out how we will amend our legal powers to
make it harder for criminals to move, hide and use the proceeds of crime.This
has been informed by legal opinion on, and lessons learned from, the work of
the Arab Spring Asset Recovery Task Force.
