Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what recent discussions he has had with the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union on ensuring that UK Border Force is adequately prepared for new customs checks and controls when the UK leaves the EU.

The UK Government’s planning for EU exit will ensure border security is maintained as well as making the trading process as frictionless as possible in any scenario.

Home Office Ministers meet regularly with Ministers across Government to develop our future approach at the border.
