The UK continues to maintain close contact with the Government of France on our joint cooperation to tackle illegal migration.

Most recently, on 14 November the Home Secretary met her counterpart Minister Darmanin to agree to a new multi-year strategic and operational plan with Minister Darmanin, supported by investment of up to €72.2 million euros (approximately £62.2 million) this financial year.
