Government Office for the North West works closely with the Home
Office, Ministry of Justice and regional partners to deliver the
Government’s Public Service Agreements (PSAs)
and PSA 23 includes as a priority action
“Continue to make progress on serious
acquisitive crime by focusing on priorities in local areas and the
most harmful offenders – particularly drug
misusing offendersâ€.
We work with, and provide support to, our partners on
acquisitive crime issues across the Region, and we oversee the
prolific and priority offender scheme and the drugs intervention
programme which are contributing to the reduction in acquisitive
crime across the North West.
The Home Office website
