Tom Brake – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Northern Ireland Office
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Tom Brake on 2016-02-22.
To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, what assessment she has made of the potential effect of a UK withdrawal from the EU on security in Northern Ireland.
Mr Ben Wallace
The Government’s view is that the UK will be stronger, safer and better off remaining in a reformed EU. ‘The best of both worlds’, published on 22 February, sets out how membership of the EU enhances our ability to co-operate with other EU Member States to combat crime and terrorism and keep all parts of the United Kingdom safe, including Northern Ireland.
