The investigations data includes GLA-only investigations as well as those in which GLA have worked jointly with partner agencies (including the police forces, Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs, National Crime Agency and the UK Human Trafficking Centre). <br><br>Over time the GLA has undertaken a reduced number of more complex investigations which focus more effectively on serious and organised crime.
