Requests for mutual legal assistance (MLA) may be referred by the Home Office, under section 15(2) of the Crime (International Cooperation) Act 2003, to the Serious Fraud Office for execution.

It is the usual policy neither to confirm nor deny the existence, content or status of any individual MLA requests.
