A call has been arranged with the Home Secretary for the beginning of March.

I was pleased to meet the UK Ambassador on 17 February and a call has been scheduled with the UK Home Secretary at the beginning of March. My Department is represented at Counsellor level in the Irish Embassy in London and senior officials in my Department engage very regularly with their counterparts in the Home Office, the Ministry of Justice and across the UK Government system, to discuss and support ongoing cooperation on important law enforcement and justice related matters.
