Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he will publish a list of the roles and responsibilities of (a) full-time and (b) part-time staff at the National County Lines Coordination Centre.

The National County Lines Co-ordination Centre is a joint initiative between the National Crime Agency and the National Police Chiefs’ Council, supported by £3.6m of Home Office funding. It is one of our key commitments set out in the Serious Violence Strategy.

The Centre is fully operational and has around 40 staff in post. The Home Office is not involved in the set up and running of the Centre as it is an operational matter for the NCA and police.
