answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/01/2015 answer text <p>Cyber is a Tier One threat to national security, and the Government is investing £860 million over five years through the National Cyber Security Programme (NCSP) to respond. Of this, approximately 10% is being invested in building law enforcement capabilities to tackle cyber crime. This has been used to build capability at the national, regional, and local level. We have established a National Cyber Crime Unit within the National Crime Agency (NCA), and cyber teams within each of the Regional Organised Crime Units (ROCUs). NCSP funding is being used to train officers in these units to investigate the most serious cases of cyber crime.<br><br>We are also delivering training in cyber crime to officers in local police forces. The College of Policing has designed four training modules on cyber crime aimed at police officers and staff, on cyber,digital and social media. Since they were rolled out in 2013, over 120,000 of these modules have been completed. The College and police forces have also been delivering a classroom-based course to police investigators, which gives them the understanding of how to exploit intelligence and evidential opportunities offered by technology, social networking and communications data.<br><br>Over the next year we will continue to build law enforcement capability to tackle cyber crime. This includes increased staffing levels and technical resource. As part of this, there will be a large expansion in the NCA's pilot programme of &quot;cyber specials&quot; – volunteer officers who have specialist expertise that is highly valuable to law enforcement – and an increase over the next three years to 80 volunteer cyber specialists in the NCA and forces across the country.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 14/01/2015 17:21:01 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley previous answer version 37954 answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning

uin	220044
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/01/2015 answer text <p>Home Office Ministers have regular meetings with Ministerial colleagues and others as part of the process of policy development and delivery. As was the case with previous administrations, it is not the Government's practice to provide details of all such meetings.<br><br>According to the latest crime figures published by the Office for National Statistics, the Crime Survey for England and Wales shows a 23% fall in violence in the year to the end of June 2014, and this is supported by NHS data on hospital admissions for assault which also indicates violence is falling. <br><br>Over the same period, the number of violence offences recorded by the police rose by 11%, with the Metropolitan Police one of the forces seeing a rise. The Office for National Statistics noted that the increase in police recorded violence is partly due to improved reporting and recording of violence and particularly of domestic abuse. This improvement follows HMIC's inspection of crime recording in every police force in England and Wales, which the Home Secretary commissioned in 2013, and which found significant under-recording of crime. <br><br>The data shows that forces are acting on the findings.<br><br>We also know that some violent crimes like domestic and sexual violence are under-reported. We welcome more people reporting them to the police and we want to see more cases being brought to justice.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning grouped question UIN 220036 question first answered 14/01/2015 17:07:34 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning previous answer version 37865 answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
