Despatch of CRM12 forms for duty rotas starting 1 October begins
The sending out CRM12s to providers who have verified their tenders in stage 1 of the crime procurement process has begun.

Completed CRM12 forms must be returned to the LAA no later than Friday 23 May. However, if submitted by 9 May 2025, the form will be reviewed and there will be an opportunity to make corrections prior to the final deadline.
Completed CRM12s must be returned to crm12@justice.gov.uk.
Only the form sent should be completed as it is specific to the 2025 Contract.
The LAA will continue to work with those providers who did not complete verification in time to join the October rota. They will be eligible to join the rota that commences in January 2026 if they complete their verification process by 31 July 2025. Their contracts will commence on 1 October 2025.
