Maddie case funding. McCanns anxiously await news from Scotland Yard.

[Alice Purjorick]

Right. So presumably carrying out investigations in UK on behalf of PJ that they couldn't undertake.
Sounds interesting.

Indeed. As I recall there was one ILOR outstanding when DCI Wall took over, I don't think she raised any and she canned trips to Portugal [one trip since she took over?].
One or two things are for sure, whatever the MPS are doing they are not singing from the roof tops about it neither are those it is being done to.

I am eternally optimistic that one day we will have the truth.

I agree Jassi. AND I won't be shocked or surprised.  BSmith is singing' He did the mash he did the monsta mash' knockout punch to the face.

Silence is golden they say, some claim to know why. More funding will only be given IF criteria can be met. They can't leave it as aan open case as it never did happen here in the UK. The PJ can re archive it though...

[sadie]

There's no such thing as 'British' jurisdiction as far as I know. Please be more specific (cites would be a help).

Strange that you used the term yourself before your complaint about Brietta

No I didn't;

Really? You can't see the difference between cases falling within the jurisdiction of the Met police and therefore funded via the normal channels and the McCann case which is not within their jurisdiction and is therefore funded seperately?

So in the meantime DCI Wall is busy elsewhere,does this mean her wage is not part of the funding.

Det Ch Insp Nicola Wall, who is leading the investigation,

None of the police officers were permanently assigned to OG as far as I know. I imagine their time will be re-imbursed from the McCann case funds as and when they work on the case.

[Brietta]

As I understand it ... initially your reference was to 'closed' or cold cases any expenditure on which are carried by the police ... not to current active ones, particularly Madeleine's. 
But have it your own way, you will anyway.

One can only hope they have enough to justify further funding to allow continuation of the case ... in my opinion I don't think they would have asked if they didn't have it.

According to the report you linked earlier her costs are covered elsewhere.
"A team of four officers will continue to work solely on the Grange investigation, funded by the Home Office".
Which fact adds grist to G-Units mill wrt funding requests.
According to MPS the salaries for three DCons and a DS is ca 180k pa. Work it out for yourselves 
Looks like the Home Office are covering salaries but not overheads.

They don't close cases unless they're solved, so all unsolved cases are cold cases. If new evidence comes in someone will assess it, file it, etc. as part of day to day tasks, with the cost being met from existing budgets.

Rowley has referred to the McCann case as a cold case. Either way, it's costs are paid outwith existing budgets because it's location is outside the jurisdiction of the Met, or even the jurisdiction of England and Wales.

In your opinion ... or even better if you have a cite to substantiate what you are posting ... should Madeleine's case be taken to the stage where it can go no further  ...  under whose jurisdiction will any new evidence coming be assessed, who will the someone be who will assess it, file it, etc. as part of day to day tasks, with the cost being met from existing budgets.
Whose budget will meet those costs?

That's a very interesting question. The official line is that Operation Grange are assisting the Portuguese with the investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.

Whether that means that they have shared or will share all the evidence they have amassed with the Portuguese isn't known.

We will know if the case is re-archived in Portugal, but we won't necessarily be told by our secretive authorities what it's status is in the UK.

If funding of the case in the UK ceases then someone will no doubt make a decision about any new evidence arising.

  ... and in my opinion a question you are singularly unable to answer.

It would probably now be a good idea to return to the thread topic for real ... the request for funding Madeleine's still active case.

[faithlilly]

Have we any more news of future funding of the investigation?

Nothing yet,but by  March 12th of this year the funding was announced for April through to September,so going by that it should have been announced by now.
