Proceeding contribution from Philip Hollobone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 February 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on EU Council and North Africa.


EU Council and North Africa

Greece is responsible for an extremely leaky part of the EU's external border. Its asylum system was recently condemned as being unfit. The problem for the UK is that should economic migrants make their way into the EU to claim asylum and end up in Britain, we cannot send them back to Greece. Was that issue discussed at the Council? How can we get the Greeks to secure their part of the EU frontier?
