<p>The information requested is not held centrally. <br><br>The Government is committed
to recovering the proceeds of all crimes – there is a commitment in the 2013 Serious
and Organised Crime Strategy to pursue criminal finances by making it harder to move,
hide and use the proceeds of crime. We are taking forward this commitment by bringing
forward improved asset recovery provisions in the Serious Crime Bill, which is currently
before Parliament, and we are working with operational partners to ensure that the
use of existing asset recovery powers is considered at the outset of all appropriate
investigations.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>
