Intel sharing

Europol boss: Britain will carry on sharing intelligence after Brexit

Britain will retain its intelligence-sharing agreement with European nations after Brexit, the head of Europol has predicted, as he said continued co-operation with EU countries on counter-terrorism should be a top priority in Theresa May’s negotiations with member states.

Rob Wainwright, the director of Europol, told MPs that the organisation’s future plans included Britain remaining a member of the EU’s law enforcement agency “in at least one form or another”.
