Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether UK citizens are entitled to ask the National Crime Agency whether any red notice has been attached to them by (a) a Gulf state and (b) another country.

It is HMG’s long-standing policy to neither confirm nor deny (NCND) the existence of an INTERPOL Red Notice or Diffusion against any named individual.

This is in order to support the functioning of our judicial processes. Working with the National Crime Agency, the UK Border Force ensures that relevant information is made available to front-line officers working at the border.
