Ports: Police

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland pursuant to the answer of 9 September 2010, Official Report, column 618W, on ports: police, whether he has discussed the removal of UK Border Agency funding for three police posts at Stranraer port of arrival in his regular meetings with ministerial colleagues; how many such meetings have taken place since his appointment; on what dates the meetings took place; and which ministerial colleagues were present.

Answer: I have both written to, and spoken with, the Minister of State for Immigration to raise this issue. As was the case with the previous Administration, it is not the Government's practice to provide details of all such ministerial meetings.
