One of our main functions is the management and delivery of Critical National Services to forces.

These specialist services help free-up local forces to concentrate on local priorities, but offer access to expertise and support on cross-border crime when needed.

There are many advantages to using these national services, including reduced costs, increased effectiveness and improved information sharing.
