In England and Wales the initial decision to begin criminal proceedings normally lies with the police. Once the police have brought a criminal charge, the papers are passed to the Crown Prosecution Service which decides whether the case should be accepted for prosecution in the courts or whether the proceedings should be discontinued. In Scotland public prosecutors (Procurators fiscal) decides whether or not to bring proceedings. In Northern Ireland there is a Director of Public Prosecutions. In England and Wales a private person may institute criminal proceedings. Police may issue cautions, and in Scotland the procurator fiscal may warn, instead of prosecuting.

In April 1988 the Serious Fraud Office, a government department was established to investigate and prosecute the most serious and complex cases of fraud in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

The Crown Prosecution Service was established in England and Wales by the Prosecution Offences Act 1985. The Director of Public Prosecutions is the head of the Service, which is responsible for the prosecution of criminal offences in magistrates’ courts and the Crown Court. The Service is divided into 31 areas with a locally based Chief Crown Prosecutor, he4ading each.
