Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her Department has taken to help prevent the export of stolen vehicles.

The Government recognises the distressing and disruptive impact vehicle theft can have on victims. We are working with the police, industry and other partners to ensure the response to these crimes is as robust as it can be.

Operational activity to tackle the export of stolen vehicles should be intelligence led and the Government expects the police and other law enforcement agencies to share information to prevent it.
