European Crime Prevention Network
(asked on 2nd December 2014) - View Source
Question to the Home Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government why they have decided to leave the European Union Crime Prevention Network.
This question was answered on 15th December 2014
On 1 December 2014 the UK opted out of more than 100 EU police and criminal justice powers including the European Union Crime Prevention Network.
The Government has always been clear that we wanted to remain part of a smaller number of measures which give our police and law enforcement agencies vital and practical help in the fight against crime. The European Union Crime Prevention Network is not one of those measures.
