<p>EU training support to the Libyan Coastguard and Navy (LCGN) was provided through
EU naval Operation Sophia, to which the UK made a voluntary contribution of €595,000
on 12 May 2017. No contributions were made by the UK to EU training of the LCGN after
that date. LCGN training was funded out of voluntary contributions from Member States
and we estimate the total amount to be approximately €3 million. The operation formally
closed on 31 March 2020. It was succeeded by EU Operation IRINI, to which the UK has
not contributed.</p>
