Do we need EU control over Crime and Policing?

This week, on the Week in Westminster, I debated Britain’s choice of whether or not to opt out of 130 EU crime and policing measures with George Parker of the FT and Tom Brake from the Lib Dems.

The government has until 2014 to decide. You can listen to the discussion here (from 17mins), and you can read the letter signed by 102 Conservative MPs in favour of exercising the opt out here.
