PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Border Security Command (15 October 2024)

We have created the Border Security Command to lead the fight against the criminal smuggling gangs who threaten our border, put lives at risk, and undermine our national security, and we have been delighted to appoint the former Chair of the National Police Chiefs' Council, Martin Hewitt, to lead that work.

Backed by £75 million of funding, the Border Security Command is already working closely with operational partners in the UK and overseas towards our shared goal to disrupt and dismantle this criminal trade in human lives.
