To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what recent discussions he has had with his French counterpart on the treatment of refugees in the Calais and Dunkirk regions by police.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what recent discussions he has had with his French counterpart on the treatment of refugees in the Calais and Dunkirk regions by police.
Much of the UK’s relationship with France on illegal migration is governed by the Sandhurst Treaty, signed in January 2018. The Treaty provides for joint cooperation to improve security infrastructure at the shared border in northern France, to reduce illegal migration flows and to provide support to the most vulnerable. This includes a programme of work to support access into asylum accommodation in France and a Dublin Regulation Development Fund. The UK has committed a package of €50 million to implement this work, which is overseen by the official UK-France Migration Committee. Our two countries continue to undertake regular and routine ministerial and senior official discussions regarding migration across our shared border and our cooperation under the Sandhurst Treaty. However, the actions of French law enforcement on their sovereign territory remain a domestic matter for the French Government and as such the British Government is not consulted on their activities. |

The Ministerial Board on Deaths in Custody is overseeing work to consider whether there are alternatives to police use of prolonged physical restraint that could increase detainee safety, especially in the context of mental health crises. This work is being undertaken in consultation with police and healthcare partners.
Alongside this, the College of Policing will publish evidence based guidelines on ‘Safer Resolution’ early next year. These guidelines will provide recommendations to police forces on how they can develop de-escalation training to reduce the likelihood that officers will need to use restraint to resolve issues.
The College is also working with police forces to develop and pilot de-escalation training in the new financial year which will help to strengthen the evidence base for effective de-escalation training.
