The publicly operated Forensic Science Service should never have been privatised. Cameron’s govt closed it because it made a small loss. Look at the consequences - ’for profit’ labs operating like cowboys http://news.sky.com/story/drug-driving-convictions-quashed-over-forensics-lab-tampering-claims-11573200 …
They weren’t perfect, but were generally of a high standard and internationally respected and had no profit motive to cut corners / fiddle results. I really worry about businesses retaining samples for say 50 years - it’s not going to happen. And what if they go just? Ridiculous!

It’s clearly not working. Wasn’t the aim to sell the FSS as a going concern? That didn’t happen. So much waste.

I think the supposed justification was £2 million a year ‘loss’ by the FSS. This was peanuts. All about the Tories taking care of their private sector mates. Renationalise the service when Labour govt back in power
