HC Deb 13 April 1988 vol 131 c144W
Mr. Rathbone

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what consideration has been given to rationalising international law enforcement agreements so that law officers can have the same freedom of movement and operation on the people they are watching or pursuing.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

Police officers may already follow suspects from one country to another when this appears to be necessary. The facilitation of international cooperation of this kind is one of the functions of the International Police Organisation (Interpol).
