Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions his Department has had with the National Police Coordination Centre on the capacity of the police service in Gibraltar to manage border security in the event of the UK leaving the EU without a deal.

Home Office officials are working closely with the National Police Co-ordination Centre (NPoCC) and with the National Police Chiefs Council (NPCC) to determine the impact of EU Exit on policing and plan accordingly.

It is entirely responsible and appropriate that we prepare for every eventuality and we will continue to work closely with our policing partners on contingency planning to ensure the safety and security of our citizens.
