Fraud is the most common crime in England and Wales. There were 3.3 million incidents of fraud in the year ending June 2023. It accounts for over 40% of all offences, yet it’s only receives about 1% of police resources.
To mark International Fraud Awareness Week (12-18 November 2023), Dame Diana Johnson MP, Chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee, and Committee member Simon Fell MP, discuss the Committee’s inquiry into fraud.
