Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment she has made of the potential effect of the UK leaving the EU on the operation of the Border Force.

Following the outcome of the referendum of the UK’s membership of the European Union, Border Force’s work continues as normal at the borders. As the UK remains a member of the European Union for the time being, there have been no changes to how it undertakes Border Force frontline duties dealing with the British public and EU nationals, and in the legal framework within which it operates.
