To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps she has taken to incorporate into the Serious Organised Crime Strategy the conclusions of the document, UK commitment to action on illegal wildlife trade, published in February 2014.

The Home Office continues to work with other departments to ensure that the Government delivers on the UK Commitment to Action on the Illegal Wildlife Trade. The Government will review its progress against the UK’s commitments

early next year.

The Serious and Organised Crime Strategy applies the successful framework we use to counter terrorism to drive and coordinate our response to serious and organised crime, which encompasses illegal wildlife trade. The National Crime

Agency and its law enforcement partners focus on disrupting those serious and organised criminals that present the highest risk to the UK and its communities, including in areas such as child sexual exploitation and modern

slavery. Where high-risk organised criminals are engaged in illegal wildlife trade, the Agency will lead, support or coordinate an appropriate level of response.
