The Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA) is an Executive Non-Departmental Public Body sponsored by, but operationally independent from, the Home Office. 
SOCA is an intelligence-led agency with law enforcement powers and harm reduction responsibilities. Harm in this context is the damage caused to people and communities by serious organised crime.
SOCA prioritises tackling Class A drugs and organised immigration crime. Other targeted criminal activities include firearms, armed robbery, fraud, money laundering and identity crime.
