	answer	answer answer text <p>The National Crime Agency (NCA) operates UK-wide but as a result of not securing legislative consent the activities of the NCA in Northern Ireland are restricted. Under current arrangements the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) is able to access information and advice from the NCA including from its Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) Command. What is missing, however, is access to operational support.</p><p>This government is disappointed by the decision of the Northern Ireland Executive not to agree to give NCA officers police powers. However, policing is devolved in Northern Ireland, and this is something we must respect. We continue to support Northern Ireland Justice Minister David Ford’s efforts to secure full operational powers for the NCA under appropriate accountability arrangements tailored to Northern Ireland’s structures.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>

	answer	answer answer text <p>The National Crime Agency (NCA) has a flexible, UK-wide operational capability, prioritising the deployment of its resources against the highest risks and undertaking targeted operations to cut serious and organised crime affecting <br>our communities. The NCA's People Strategy delivers a flexible response in which the workforce is placed in areas of operational demand. There is nothing to preclude the employment of people living in Northern Ireland. For example, <br>NCA officers based in Northern Ireland work on Civil Recovery and Tax casesrelating to England and Wales in the absence of consent for the NCA to take on full functions in Northern Ireland. All NCA vacancies across the United Kingdom are advertised in the spirit of open and fair competition. The NCA recruit in this fashion to secure the best candidates for these demanding roles</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>

	answer	answer answer text <p>Since 20 May 2015, the National Crime Agency (NCA) has been operating with full powers in Northern Ireland. As the NCA reported to the Northern Ireland Policing Board on 01 October 2015, the scope of NCA’s crime-fighting capability within the jurisdiction has increased. During the period April-June 2015, the NCA recorded 26 disruptions against organised crime groups and high priority threats operating in Northern Ireland. The NCA has worked in partnership with the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) and the support that the NCA provides law enforcement partners, particularly the PSNI has been enhanced.</p><p>The NCA is committed to playing its role in tackling serious and organised crime in Northern Ireland. The NCA will be fully engaged in delivering the commitment outlined in ‘A Fresh Start: The Stormont Agreement and Implementation Plan’ to undertake a concerted and enhanced effort to combat serious and organised and cross border crime.</p>
