Question to the Home Office:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the National Crime Agency's cooperation to date with the government of the Republic of Ireland in respect of tackling cross-border crime.
The NCA works closely with law enforcement partners in the Republic of Ireland to tackle serious and organised crime which affects both countries. In particular, the NCA participates fully in the Joint Agency Task Force (JATF), which was established under the 'Fresh Start' Agreement to enhance efforts to tackle cross-jurisdictional organised crime.
