Counter-terrorism: Rural Areas
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what recent steps her Department has taken to improve coordination between counter-terrorism policing units and local authorities in rural areas.
Answered by Sarah Jones
The Counter-Terrorism Policing network stretches across the UK. There are eleven regional counter-terrorism units (CTUs) and intelligence units (CTIUs) that collaborate daily to confront the threat from terrorism. The UK’s counter-terrorism strategy, CONTEST, outlines the importance of working together with partners, including local authorities and communities, to keep us safe. For security reasons, we do not comment on specifics of partnership or operations.
