Claims that Prince Harry<\/a>\u2019s wish for full armed protection is \u201cnailed on\u201d<\/a> and that his security in the UK will be reinstated have been dismissed by sources close to the government process reassessing the Duke\u2019s threat level. The Duke of Sussex lost a legal challenge last year regarding the levels of security he and his family receive while in the UK, following their departure from the Royal Family. However, last month, the prince was granted a full risk assessment after a major U-turn by the Home Office, which saw Ravec, the Royal and VIP Executive Committee, reassess his threat level for the first time in six years.<\/p>\n Last week, sources close to Harry claimed the camp is cautiously optimistic<\/a> that his wish for full armed protection is \u201cnailed-on\u201d and \u201cwill be reinstated\u201d. They told the Mail on Sunday<\/a>: \u201cIt\u2019s now a formality. Sources at the Home Office have indicated that security is now nailed-on for Harry.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n But now, Government and royal sources have dismissed the claims and said that nothing has been finalised yet, as the process has not concluded.<\/p>\n Ravec\u2019s risk management board (RMB) is set to present the reassessment to the committee later this month before a final decision is made.<\/p>\n A source told the Times<\/a>: \u201cI have no idea what the RMB recommendation to Ravec will be, but what I do know with certainty is that neither does anyone else, since they are still undertaking the review.<\/p>\n \u201cOn that basis, claims that a decision is already \u2018nailed on\u2019 seem more like an attempt to manipulate the media into manifesting an outcome from what will be a fair and rigorous review, but one that is very much still ongoing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cWhoever is behind them must not realise how transparent and counterproductive to proper process that is.\u201d<\/p>\n
