The mother of missing Ben Needham has told ITV News that Home Office funding for the investigation into her son's disappearance has been a "long time coming".
Kerry Needham, whose son vanished in Greece more than 20 years ago, said the announcement was "bittersweet" as the delay in receiving resources could have "hindered us in finding Ben".
"It's been a long time coming - I was starting to get to the point where I didn't think it was going to be authorised," Mrs Needham said.
"So, it's been long and frustrating."
"I believe that one way or another they will find out what happened to him or they will find him at the end of it."
