These allegations are challenging to investigate. Their investigation is handled with great care and this necessarily takes time. This case is particularly complex and the investigation is still ongoing. For this reason, it would not be appropriate for me to comment on it.</p> answering member constituency Torridge and West Devon answering member printed Mr Geoffrey Cox question first answered 04/11/2019 17:43:13 answering member 1508 label Biography information for Sir Geoffrey Cox

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/09/2021 answer text <p>The Serious Fraud Office (SFO), by its specialist nature, takes on a relatively small number of large, complex economic crime cases which can take several years to investigate. This means that small changes in case numbers can lead to significant fluctuations in in the SFO’s conviction rate.</p><p> </p><p>Against this context, in 2020-21 the SFO’s conviction rate for individuals was 67 percent, which included three convictions in the $1.7bn Unaoil bribery case and one guilty plea in the Petrofac bribery case. No corporations were brought to trial in 2020-21. The SFO also secured two Deferred Prosecution Agreements against corporates in 2020-21, returning £47.4m in fines and penalties to the UK taxpayer and compelling these organisations to reform.</p> answering member constituency Northampton North answering member printed Michael Ellis question first answered 10/09/2021 11:02:47 answering member 4116 label Biography information for Sir Michael Ellis

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/09/2021 answer text <p>The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) has robust assurance processes in place to ensure effective decision-making on whether to open, continue, or close a criminal investigation into a corporate entity. This includes the SFO’s Case Evaluation Board (CEB) and Case Review Panels (CRPs), both of which are chaired by the SFO General Counsel.</p><p> </p><p>The CEB reviews intelligence submissions against the Director’s Statement of Principle and assesses strategic and tactical risks, costs, and resource implications to make an informed recommendation to the Director on whether to initiate or decline an investigation. CRPs seek to scrutinise all cases at least twice a year to ensure that sound judgement and appropriate investigative and legal expertise are being used in cases, and that cases are progressing appropriately and comply with all relevant legal and operational guidance.</p><p> </p><p>While the SFO exercises independence in its individual casework decisions, I am regularly updated by the Director and her senior leadership team on the SFO’s casework.</p> answering member constituency Northampton North answering member printed Michael Ellis question first answered 10/09/2021 11:06:29 answering member 4116 label Biography information for Sir Michael Ellis
