Select Committee on International Development Minutes of Evidence


Supplementary memorandum submitted by the National Criminal Intelligence Service (NCIS)

  The enclosed spreadsheet shows the costings for setting up a proactive intelligence development in respect of suspicious financial transactions relating to sanctions/corruption issues.

  It is intended that the unit will comprise of one Detective Sergeant (DS), one Detective Constable (DC), one Analyst and two Criminal Intelligence Officers (CIOs). The total projected cost for the new unit would be £451,941.

  To be truly effective, however, the unit should have staff seconded from other agencies. This would have the effect of raising the costs due to indirect staff costs, accommodation and IT costs. The amount therefore projected to cover these issues would be in the region of £500,000.
