(asked on 25th June 2019) - View Source
Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what estimate his Department has made of the expected savings to the public purse of outsourcing warrants of arrest work to Approved Enforcement Agencies.
This question was answered on 2nd July 2019
It is estimated that the contracting out of all Warrant of Arrest work to Approved Enforcement Agencies (AEAs) has the potential to deliver savings in resource of over £25m over the initial term of the contract (5 years). This includes Warrants of Arrest currently undertaken by Civilian Enforcement Officers as well as Warrants of Arrest already undertaken by AEAs.
