Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what assessment the Government has made of the implications for its policies of the Paraskevopoulos Law in Greece.
We are concerned about the implications of the Paraskevopoulos Law, which allows early release of potentially dangerous convicted criminals in Greece. The European Parliament raised concerns in February this year about the Law's effect on security within the Schengen area.
