answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2014 answer text <p>Departmental spend on commissioning the Child Abuse Image Database (CAID) for the first year is £1,473,179, which is being recharged to police forces. It is estimated that CAID will save the police £7.474 million by March 2017 by speeding up police processes.<br><br>The project has been developed using data from Interpol and, where appropriate, this information will be included in the initial database load for CAID.<br><br>The CAID system will be available to all police forces in the UK and National Crime Agency – Child Exploitation and Online Protection (NCA-CEOP) Command via the police secure network. All forces will be accredited to access this data supported by the Home Office project team and security advisers. The CAID system allows the use of forces’ existing image grading and hashing software. <br><br>Any additional software needed to access CAID and to upload new material from the forces/NCA-CEOP Command to the database is provided as part of the central project at no cost to the forces. <br><br>Each force is responsible for its own set-up costs to establish the connectivity of their force High Tech Crime Unit or Grading Unit in an <br>enhanced, secure way to the police secure network that already exists in their forces.<br><br>It is expected that the CAID will cost forces approximately £20,000 per year in service costs (which are used to maintain and improve the database).

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2014 answer text <p>There are limits to what can be said publically about the operational techniques used by our law enforcement agencies. To do so would assist <br>potential criminals to evade detection. However, in investigations that start with an online identifier or IP address, such as online child sexual <br>exploitation cases, communications data will often be the only available investigative lead to identify a suspect or victim in the real world. If this <br>data is not available, such investigations cannot proceed. As the Director General of the National Crime Agency, Keith Bristow, has made clear: <br>&quot;Communications data is still overwhelmingly the most powerful tool available to those investigating child sexual exploitation and identifying and <br>safeguarding its victims and potential victims.&quot;</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 29/10/2014 13:30:02 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley previous answer version 24346 answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
