We have also been working with law enforcement to improve the reporting and investigation of fraud and the support provided to victims. Last year, the Secretary of State commissioned Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire &amp; Rescue Services to carry out a thematic inspection of the policing response to fraud. The inspection report is due to be published in early 2019, and will inform our future activity.</p> answering member constituency Wyre and Preston North answering member printed Mr Ben Wallace question first answered 29/01/2019 15:38:58 answering member 1539 label Biography information for Mr Ben Wallace
