Recommendation 196

196

Effective collaboration requires consistent intelligence sharing to disrupt OCG drone operations

Conclusion
Collaboration between HMPPS and law enforcement agencies, such as the National Crime Agency and local police, is critical in identifying and disrupting the OCGs behind drone operations. We are pleased to hear that HMPPS have developed good working relationships with law enforcement which has led to more arrests. However, success hinges on the consistent, continuous and proactive sharing of analytical work, timely intelligence and the elimination of information silos. (Conclusion, Paragraph 115)
