answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2014 answer text <p>The Government takes extremely seriously the threat posed by those who travel from the UK to join terrorist movements abroad and who might return with enhanced capabilities which they may intend to use against the UK or the intention of radicalising others.<br><br>The investigation and monitoring of individuals who pose a threat to our national security is an operational matter for the police and Security Service. Prosecution is always the preferred option for tackling terrorists. But where this is not possible a range of other disruptions may be used. <br><br>These include disrupting travel by cancelling British passports on public interest grounds, dual nationals’ deprivation of British citizenship and exclusion from the UK to prevent their return, and interviews at the border as part of Counter Terrorist investigations. <br><br>We have also proscribed a number of terrorist groups active in the Syrian conflict, including ISIS. Membership or support for a proscribed organisation is a criminal offence.<br><br>Those who return from Syria are individually assessed and where further investigation is not warranted we can provide tailored counter-radicalisation interventions to support the returnee and dissuade them from travelling again or radicalising others.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 21/07/2014 16:21:11 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley

uin	204617
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2014 answer text <p>The UK has a proud tradition of providing protection to those who need it and fully considers all asylum applications lodged in the UK in accordance with our international obligations. However there is no obligation on us to consider applications or enquiries made on behalf of people abroad about asylum in the UK. The approach of both the UK and the European Union is that an individual should apply for protection from the authorities in the first available safe country, irrespective of whether or not it is a party to the 1951 Refugee Convention, failing which the local office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) should be able to assist. <br><br>Moreover, under international law, someone seeking asylum must first be outside the country of his nationality or habitual residence, since international protection cannot be provided while a person is within the territorial jurisdiction of his home country.<br><br>The UK will continue to fulfil its responsibilities to those who arrive within our borders and seek protection.<br><br>While there is no provision within our Immigration Rules for someone to be given permission to travel to the UK to seek asylum, the Government operates a Gateway Protection Programme, established several years ago with the aim of bringing genuine refugees direct to the UK. This Programme is run in partnership with the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR).It underpins the UK’s proud tradition of providing protection to refugees and the Government’s commitment to supporting UNHCR’s global effort to provide durable solutions to the plight of refugees.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 21/07/2014 15:35:47 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
