<p>Since the UK left the EU in January 2020, we have strengthened our bilateral relationship
with France on migration. This included establishing, in July 2020, the UK-France
Joint Intelligence Cell (JIC) which is located in France and has co-located UK and
French officers working together to support the prosecution of small boat gangs. Since
it was established, the work of the JIC has led to the dismantling of 24 organised
crime groups involved in small boat crossings, with 12 of these groups being dismantled
in 2023 alone.</p>
