Proceeding contribution from Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

The right hon. Gentleman is entirely right that we should support Frontex in its work and that we should support the action that Schengen members are taking to secure Europe's external borders. That is vital because, as he says, many of those people do not stay in Greece but come to Paris or London. I do not think it is any contradiction to say that we should support that action while at the same time maintaining our own border controls and arrangements, particularly with the French, that have done us proud in recent years.
