The United Kingdom Threat Assessment (UKTA) describes and assesses the threats posed to the UK by serious organised criminals and considers how those threats may develop in future. The UKTA was previously produced by the National Criminal Intelligence Service (NCIS).

Service (UKIS) on 1 April 2006. It was published on 31 July. (PDF)
