question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many Border Force vessels patrol UK territorial waters at any one time; and how many are needed to ensure the required levels of surveillance and security of the UK's coastline.
tabling member printed	The Marquess of Lothian
uin	HL558
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/06/2016 answer text <p>Border Force is committed to operating three cutters in UK waters at any given time. We currently have a total of four available for use in UK waters, with one rotated into use where required. These figures only include the number of cutters currently deployed in UK territorial waters and do not include the additional military and law enforcement vessels available. Border Force takes a multi-layered approach to maritime security; using a combination of cutters, radar and aerial surveillance to detect efforts to smuggle guns and drugs or facilitate illegal entry into the country. They also work closely with domestic and international partners on an intelligence-led approach, allowing us to tackle the criminals involved before they leave for the UK. Border Force is also investing in a new fleet of rigid hull inflatable boats (RHIBS) as part of a new maritime security strategy. The vessels will patrol the UK coast, helping to intercept attempts to smuggle migrants, drugs and dangerous weapons into the country.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 16/06/2016 14:55:48 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of the euro on youth unemployment in the European Union.
tabling member printed	Lord Pearson of Rannoch
uin	HL558
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/07/2014 answer text <p>We have made no specific assessment. However the Government recognises that unemployment is the biggest social challenge facing the EU today, caused by slow growth and labour market barriers in Europe. Solving youth unemployment should involve creating flexible labour markets across the EU, and this is a matter of national competence.</p> answering member printed Lord Deighton question first answered 01/07/2014 14:47:21 answering member 4262 label Biography information for Lord Deighton
