Asked by: Margaret Curran (Labour - Glasgow East)

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the annual cost to her Department is of providing UK border control services at (a) Paris Gare Du Nord station, (b) Bruxelles Midi station and (c) Calais port and Eurotunnel terminus.

Answered by James Brokenshire

The annual costs of providing UK border control services are as follow:
Paris Gare Du Nord station - £4.6 million
Bruxelles Midi station - £3.3 million
Calais port - £21.8 million
Eurotunnel terminus (Coquelles) – £21.2 million

The above resource costs are based on the last financial year's data(2013/14)
and are taken from the Home office accounting system Adelphi. These have not
yet been audited. Publication of the annual set of accounts will not present
these costs in this level of detail.
