The Prime Minister has made clear that law enforcement cooperation with our European partners will continue after the UK leaves the EU and we will do what is necessary to keep our people safe.

We are exploring options for cooperation arrangements once the UK has left the EU but it would be wrong to set out unilateral positions on specific measures in advance of negotiations.
