European Arrest Warrants

Asked by Sir Christopher ChopeConservativeHome OfficeTabled Answered 10 October 2024UIN 7402

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many European Arrest Warrants have been issued to the United Kingdom in the last 12 months for which information is available; and how many of these have been executed.

Answered by Dan Jarvis

European Arrest Warrants were replaced by arrest warrants under Title VII of the UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA). The National Crime Agency deals with arrest warrants issued in accordance with the TCA, as the designated authority for cases which fall under Part 1 of the Extradition Act 2003.

The NCA holds the data relating to arrest warrants issued and executed, not the Home Office.
