Revised business case persuade Treasury to continue Case & Custody software roll out
"The Treasury has agreed to a further £40m funding for the national police Custody and Case Preparation software applications developed by the Police IT Organisation.
The scheme was put on hold earlier this month pending a decision on future funding because the Home Office was no longer convinced of its benefits.
Roll out of the software to a further 27 forces, including London's Met Police, will now go ahead as planned, says Pito."
