I refer the Hon. Member to the reply given on 30 June 2014, Official Report,
column 377W.
National Crime Agency intelligence packages are disseminated to the most
appropriate police force based on information drawn from an investigation. This
was the case in Operation RESCUE/CALANDO.
The information requested on the number of intelligence packages sent to each
police force in the UK is operational and cannot be released because of the
possibility that there are related investigations or judicial processes
ongoing.
