	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/04/2017 answer text <p>At the London Anti-Corruption Summit in May 2016 the UK committed to establishing the new International Anti-Corruption Coordination Centre (IACCC). The IACCC will be hosted by the UK’s National Crime Agency (NCA) in London and will bring together specialist law enforcement officers from multiple foreign jurisdictions into a single location to coordinate the global law enforcement response to allegations of grand corruption.</p><p> </p><p>The NCA leads the UK's fight to cut serious and organised crime. As officers from the NCA will be permanent members of the new IACCC any allegations of grand corruption requiring a global law enforcement response will be automatically referred to the IACCC. The IACCC does not become operational until April 2017.</p><p> </p><p>You will lso be aware that as part of the Fresh Start agreement the NCA is committed to working closely with the Police Service of Northern Ireland and HM Revenue and Customs to prioritise investment in the investigative capacity to tackle criminality linked to paramilitary groups, including those in border areas, and have submitted a proposal for consideration to be part of a team with the three agencies working closely together.</p><p> </p><p>Alongside the Fresh Start agreement a Joint Agency Task Force was established that is led by senior officers from PSNI and An Garda Síochána and will enhance the operational response to cross-border criminality, of which the NCA is a member.</p><p> </p><p>Finally, a response to allegations of corruption in Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic would not normally need to involve the IACCC as there are already strong bilateral law enforcement relationships in place. However, the NCA would consider the appropriate response to allegations of corruption in consultation with Police Service Northern Ireland in Northern Ireland and in liaison with An Garda Síochána in the Irish Republic.</p> answering member constituency Wyre and Preston North answering member printed Mr Ben Wallace question first answered 03/04/2017 09:11:29 answering member 1539 label Biography information for Mr Ben Wallace

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/07/2018 answer text <p>The Home Office collects and publishes data on persons arrested for terrorism-related offences. This includes the primary offence for which a person is charged and convicted – where a person is charged/convicted of more than one offence, only the principal offence is shown (this is the most serious offence based upon the maximum penalty for each offence). The Home Office also collects and publishes data on the ‘terrorist category’ of persons arrested for terrorism-related offences. These categories include those related to Northern Ireland terrorism</p><p>These data are published quarterly as part of the ‘Operation of police powers under the Terrorism Act 2000 and subsequent legislation’ statistical bulletins, which can be accessed here:<br><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/operation-of-police-powers-under-the-terrorism-act-2000" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/operation-of-police-powers-under-the-terrorism-act-2000</a></p><p>However, the Home Office does not hold data which would allow us to link past membership of a proscribed organisation with a charge/ conviction for a relevant offence in the last 12 months.</p> answering member constituency Wyre and Preston North answering member printed Mr Ben Wallace question first answered 04/07/2018 13:10:25 answering member 1539 label Biography information for Mr Ben Wallace
