The UK’s Home Office has confirmed
that an application has been
received from the Metropolitan
Police for additional funds to keep
Operation Grange going.
"The Home Office has provided
funding to the Metropolitan Police
for Operation Grange and the
resources required are reviewed
regularly with careful consideration
given before any new funding is
allocated."
Government funding for the
investigation into the disappearance
of Madeleine McCann is set every six
months. In October 2017, the sum of
around £150,000 was allocated which
will run out at the end of March
this year.
Madeleine McCann disappeared from a
holiday apartment in Praia da Luz in
May, 2007. She was three-years-old
and has never been seen again.
The Metropolitan Police launched an
investigation in 2011 and so far has
spent around €13 million, with no
results reported.
