Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to pursue an agreement with the EU after Brexit to allow the UK to continue sharing certain intelligence available through the Five Eyes agreement with the 27 EU member states.

Intelligence sharing between the British Government and overseas partners is important to the security of our country. The Government's vision for a security partnership with the European Union is set out in the White Paper: "The future relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union" (July 2018). This includes a proposal for continued information and intelligence sharing, for example through the EU Intelligence and Situation Centre, European Union Satellite Centre and EU Military Staff. It is the longstanding policy of successive British Governments not to comment on the detail of intelligence matters.​
