UK Participation In The EU Agency For Criminal Justice Cooperation (Eurojust) — EU Coordination and Cooperation in Policing and Justice — 16 Jan 2019 at 19:54

The majority of MPs voted to maintain and improve coordination and cooperation between European Union member states in the field of policing and justice, particularly in relation to serious organised crime. The majority of MPs voted in favour of the UK's continued participation in European Union Agency for Criminal Justice Cooperation (Eurojust).

The motion supported by the majority of MPs in this vote was:

• That this House takes note of Regulation 2018/1727 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the European Union Agency for Criminal Justice Cooperation (Eurojust), and replacing and repealing Council Decision 2002/187/JHA; endorses the Government's decision to request to opt in under Protocol 21 on the Position of the United Kingdom and Ireland in respect of the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice annexed to the EU Treaties; and supports the Government's assessment that Eurojust provides a valuable service to the UK and that opting in would enable us to maintain operational continuity and minimise disruption for UK law enforcement and prosecution authorities during the proposed Implementation Period.
