Why is this even news?
If the police needs the funds, they should have them.

There is an argument that the mccanns could/should pay for any further investigations.

That amount will be gone in a blink of an eye. What happened to their book sales? Surely they must have contributed in some way. Personally a case that she may never be found, I still think she is alive but who knows?

£11 million seems an awful lot to spend on one person, I would bet there are many other missing people whose investigation costs barely got into the thousands.....
I see her dad quite regularly walking round Glenfield hospital, her mum was in the canteen there the other week too.

Its a crazy amount.
Think of the amount of other peoples lives who could have been completely changed for the better with this money.
What exactly is this "search" going to do that all the others haven't done before?

Getting a bit heated on the BBC FB page for this story. Couple of comments....
‘Scum McCanns, it's a disgrace, didn't spend hardly anything on Ben Needham, oh I forgot his parents weren't middle class doctors, and he went missing from a beach, they didn't neglect him, simply awful to spend our tax paying money on these pair of scum bags 😡😡😡😡’
‘Stop wasting money on this!!! Let her parents pay from the millions they got from their books and interviews. Guess crime does pay.. the doctor family who neglected their kids but never got punished except with money’

How many other kids going missing each year we never hear of?

Why?
It's a police investigation. The police need more money because they have reason to continue researching the case.
If they think it's no longer worth investigating, they'll stop and close the case

I’m surprised at the level of outrage, must be 95%+ that side with these comments, albeit maybe not quite as harsh!

It must be horrific to losing a child like this, I don't think it's possible to imagine the pain.
A line has to be draw at some point though.
You do wonder why we have chosen to spend £11 million on one case when hundreds of others get no resources or time.

Surely the best people to decide when to draw that line is the police?
They obviously feel there are further lines worth persuing.
While there are leads that haven't been fully explored, the money should be provided.
