Lord Pearson of Rannoch – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Pearson of Rannoch on 2016-05-25.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of the operations of the European Gendarmerie Force.

Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

The European Gendarmerie Force is not a European Union force. It has its own separate treaty between the countries that participate, which does not include the UK, and is not part of the European Union framework. The Government notes the work of the European Gendarmerie Force, but has no plans to pursue membership.
