Alan Brown (Scottish National Party - Kilmarnock and Loudoun)
Question
to the Northern Ireland Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, with reference to the oral contribution of the hon. Member for Kilmarnock and Loudoun, of 9 May 2018, Official Report, column 664, what discussions she has had with the Home Secretary on the proportion of additional customs officials who will be based in Northern Ireland; and if she will make a statement.
Answered by Karen Bradley
I have regular conversations with the Home Secretary on a range of issues.
I reiterate the Government’s clear commitment to there being no hard border between Northern Ireland and Ireland, and no physical infrastructure or related checks and controls at the border. The Border Force recruitment campaign will largely replace individual recruitment rounds to specific roles. It will meet a range of business needs, including meeting the normal staff turnover associated with a large operational business such as Border Force.
