France: Refugees

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, whether his Department has made representation to the French Government on protecting the human rights of refugees based at (a) Calais and (b) Dunkirk.

Answer

This is a Home Office policy area and so I have not spoken to my French colleagues on this matter. The British government is committed to working closely with our French partners at all levels of their government to jointly manage our shared border at Calais and Dunkirk. We have close bilateral cooperation and a regular dialogue with French officials on migration matters
