Stephen Gethins – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Stephen Gethins on 2016-10-07.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether the Government plans to maintain the use of the Dublin System in the event of the UK leaving the EU.

Mr Robert Goodwill

The British people have voted to leave the European Union and the Prime Minister has been clear that their will must be respected and delivered.

The question of how the UK deals with asylum applicants arriving in the UK from EU Member States and shares information with the EU and international partners will be a key consideration as part of the process of leaving the EU and establishing a new relationship.
