Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) BillContribution
Without these powers, the PSFA will not be able to effectively conduct criminal investigations into fraud committed against public authorities. In cases that appear to warrant criminal investigations, the PSFA would have no choice but to look to refer the matter to another law enforcement body. This is entirely contrary to the PSFA’s aim of reducing the burden on existing law enforcement and the Government’s aim of improving our ability to identify and tackle fraud committed against public authorities.
