Question to the Home Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to improve security co-operation with the EU.

The safety and security of our citizens is the Government’s top priority.

The UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement delivers a comprehensive package of capabilities which ensures we can work with counterparts across Europe to tackle serious crime and terrorism – protecting the public and bringing criminals to justice.

We also have excellent bilateral cooperation with Member States across the EU on a wide range of law enforcement and criminal justice issues and we will continue to consider ways to strengthen these bilateral relationships.

More widely, we continue to enhance our support to - and work closely with - international organisations such as Interpol to improve and develop law enforcement technology and tools that have a global reach.

The UK will continue to be a global leader on security and one of the safest countries in the world.
