The Crown Prosecutor will endorse the file with the number of sets of photographs required and reasons for requiring photographs as opposed to photocopies of photographs. Unless the police are willing to supply extra sets of photographs free of charge, the Area making the request will be liable for the additional costs incurred. As the need for photographs, as opposed to photocopies, is likely to arise ver...
