That checks for foreign convictions on arrest are not mandatory in all police forces across the UK (2) That checks for foreign convictions are not undertaken on UK nationals given the current levels of international travel and the potential relevance for such convictions to the matter for which that person may have been arrested_ (3) That the Home Office continues to encourage both EU and Non EU countries to update the "watch list" such that there is a readily referenced computer database at international borders of matters such as murder convictions_ That the Home Office continues to encourage both EU and non EU countries to delete serious convictions such as murder from their data bases_ That contingency plans are considered as to how to manage the "watch list" and Operation Nexus when and if the UK leaves the EU, both in respect of how systems operate when no longer resting on EU Directives and how to maintain international communication and cooperation_ That the UK does not lose access to Europol intelligence when and if the UK leaves the EU: Whether non-EU foreign nationals need special consideration in respect of how to identify their foreign convictions and thus for the UK to manage their criminal propensity, since understand from the evidence that their convictions are most Iikely identified by non-automated Interpol or police to police queries_ they not

Home Secretary 2 Marsham Street Home Office London SWIP 4DF www,homeoffice gov uk Dr, Fiona Wilcox H.M. Senior Coroner Inner West London Westminster Coroner's Court 65 Horseferry Road London SW1P 2ED September 2016 INQUEST INTO THE DEATH OF ALICE POPPY MADELEINE GROSS _ REGULATION 28 REPORT Thank you for your 'Report to Prevent Future Deaths' of 12 July 2016, following the inquest into the death of Alice Gross, who died between 28 August 2014 and 30 September 2014 in Hanwell, Ealing: The untimely death of any citizen, particularly one as young as Alice, is tragedy and am grateful to you for your report have carefully considered the matters of concern highlighted in your report and welcome the opportunity to set out the steps the Government has already taken on the issues, as well as further actions we will take_ The Government's response to the points you identify is taken in order; below_ That mandatory checks for foreign convictions are not conducted on arrest in all police forces across the United Kingdom; As you remark; no checks for foreign conviction information were carried out on Arnis Zalkalns when he was arrested in 2009. As was noted in evidence provided by my Department to the inquest; it was not regarded as "normal practice" for the police to do s0 and as you report; the allegation against him at the time was not progressed as the victim did not cooperate with the police investigation_ Since 2010 however; mechanisms have been put in place to allow the police to conduct criminal records checks on all foreign nationals who are arrested in the UK Since 2012 the European Criminal Record Information System (ECRIS) has provided police forces with access to criminal records information quickly and through an automated system via the ACRO Criminal Records Office (ACRO), which manages criminal records exchange across the European Union for the UK: Copu
For non-EU nationals, police forces are increasingly using Interpol |-24/7 , browser-based system, which was made available to the 190 Interpol members in 2002, to share police information across the globe on a 24/7 and 365 days a year basis_ Police forces in the UK are able to access information via the secure Police National Network: Usage of the system has rapidly increased in the last few years and work continues with UK law enforcement to promote its use on daily basis The Government sees the use of criminality information as an important tool in protecting the public and continues to engage with law enforcement agencies to ensure that this information is used to the fullest It is, however; ultimately for individual chief constables to decide how their police force should conduct operational matters_ Furthermore it is for police and crime commissioners, as the elected persons responsible for police governance under the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011_ to hold their chief constables to account for their performance in combating crime That is not to say that there is not more that can be done which is why ACRO has worked with police forces and chief constables to promote the importance of conducting checks in all cases In light of your comments have asked officials to ensure concerns are communicated t0 the National Police Chiefs' Council. (2) That checks for foreign convictions are not undertaken on UK nationals given the current levels of international travel; ECRIS requires EU Member States to notify the UK within a set timeframe when UK national has been convicted of an offence in their territory. This information is processed by ACRO and uploaded onto the Police National Computer (PNC) and the effect of this is that an EU-wide criminal record for UK citizens is made available to UK law enforcement_ This enables them to in place public protection measures where necessary (such as ensuring an individual can sign the sex offenders register on the basis of previous sexual offence committed elsewhere in the EU): Outside of the EU, the 1959 Council of Europe Convention on Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters ensures that when a UK national is convicted of an offence in another country, the information is made available to the police by other signatory countries The UK exchanges criminal records information with several non-EU countries under this Convention including Norway; Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland who are members of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), and three other countries Chile, Israel, and South Korea_ Brazil and South Africa are also signatories but not ratified the Convention_ Countries that have signed and ratified the Convention are required to exchange information on the convictions of another country's own nationals at least once a year: your put have yet
The UK also has number of agreements in place with other non-EU countries which further supports the prompt exchange of information on the foreign convictions of UK nationals Indeed since 2010 ACRO, on behalf of the UK, has signed criminal records sharing agreements with Jamaica, Anguilla, Bermuda the Cayman Islands , Montserrat; Turks and Caicos Antigua and Barbuda, Trinidad and Tobago, Barbados; St Kitts and Nevis and the Sovereign Base Area of Cyprus which has enhanced the amount of criminal records information we can access on UK nationals_ The Foreign and Commonwealth Office also notifies ACRO each time UK national is convicted of a serious offence abroad_ (3) That the Home Office continues to encourage both EU and non-EU countries to update the 'watch list' such that there is a readily referenced computer database at international borders of matters such as murder convictions; The UK maintains its own domestic 'watch list' known as the Warnings Index and information on that system can and is used to refuse entry to individuals who pose a risk to the UK public_ Indeed, over 6,500 individuals from the EU and wider European Economic Area have been refused since 2010. Furthermore, the UK's connection to the EU second generation Schengen Information System (SISII) in April 2015 has enhanced the amount of criminality information which the police and border officers can access. SISII helps to track the movements around Europe of over 10,000 people convicted of sexual or violent offences in the UK as and when come into contact with law enforcement across the EU, with over 6,000 hits received on these individuals_ SISII information is made available to UK police (through the Police National Computer) and to Border Force officers to enable them to make more effective decisions whether to grant to the UK at the border It is of course a matter for each country to decide how to operate their own domestic 'watch list' systems _ However; the UK is actively working to expand information sharing with other partners such as India and our 'Five Eyes partners (the USA, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada), to promote greater criminal records exchange practices and encourage other countries to do more to update their 'watch lists" to further protect the public. This includes pushing for bilateral agreements to underpin the efficient and prompt exchange of information the UK has signed ten such agreements since 2010 and supporting countries to improve their criminal register and fingerprint systems, which in turn, enhances the criminality information which can be exchanged with the UK. Within the EU the UK has been leading proponent of greater information exchange between countries for public protection reasons, including at the border, supporting an EU 'Roadmap' endorsed by the Justice and Home Affairs Council in June this year, which seeks to enhance the sharing and management of criminality information systems _ This envisages exchanges of data between the Schengen and non-Schengen countries, which includes the UK entry they entry
We will continue to play a role in promoting greater information sharing within the EU while we remain a member and whilst it would be wrong to out unilateral positions in advance of negotiations on options for future cooperation arrangements once the UK has left the EU, we will do what is necessary to keep people safe to ensure we have robust criminal records sharing arrangements in place when we leave the EU. (4) That the Home Office continues to encourage both EU and non-EU countries not to delete serious convictions such as murder from their data bases; As you suggest; the UK continues to encourage EU Member States to commit to longer retention periods of criminal records, particularly where the offence is serious Likewise, the UK continues to encourage our international partners to consider longer retention periods of criminal records for serious offences, setting out the clear public protection arguments as to why this information is needed. However , these matters are of course ultimately for individual countries to decide (5) That contingency plans are considered on how to manage the 'watch list' and Operation Nexus when and if the UK leaves the EU, both in respect of how systems operate when no longer resting on EU Directives and how to maintain international communication and cooperation; and (6) That the UK does not lose access to Europol intelligence when and if the UK leaves the EU; The Prime Minister has the whole machinery of Government behind getting the best deal as the UK leaves the EU. A great deal of work is going on across Government to ensure that happens_ The Prime Minister has made clear that whilst we are leaving the EU cooperation on security with our European and global allies will continue and we will do whatever is necessary to our citizens safe_ Clearly it would be wrong to be drawn on the specifics of any future arrangements in advance of negotiations with our EU partners. Whether non-EU foreign nationals need special consideration in respect of how to identify their foreign convictions and thus for the UK to manage their criminal propensity; The Government took firm action during the last Parliament to ensure that the public interest in seeking to deport non-EU foreign national offenders was clearly set out in statute in the Immigration Act 2014. My Department also continues to actively support ACRO to increase the volume of criminal records information exchanged with non-EU countries, The increase in criminal records sharing agreements signed with other countries since 2010 has helped support very significant increase in the number of checks made by the police of non-EU nationals in the last four years, from 644 requests for overseas criminal convictions made in 2011 to 44,695 requests in 2015_ set put keep

(iii) With regard to this last matter; Border Force has arrangements in place to identify criminal, security and immigration concerns. All passengers arriving at UK passport controls have their identity and travel documents checked against 'watch lists" and, as have noted, where it is believed an individual poses risk; Border Force Officers can, and refuse them The Government places the highest priority on ensuring law enforcement community has as much information as possible to do their jobs and keep our citizens safe, whether at the border or in-country, and is committed to building on the good progress that has been made in recent years_ hope that this response addresses the concerns you raised. would like to take this opportunity to thank you again for raising these important issues and for your work examining Alice's death am copying this letter to Alice Gross's family and the family's legal team: Lu (Lu The Rt Hon Amber Rudd MP they with; do, entry. the

Investigation and Inquest
On the 10th October 2014 an investigation was opened in West London touching the death of Alice Poppy Madeleine Gross, who died aged 14 years between 28th August 2014 and 30 September 2014 in the vicinity of the tow path of the River Brent; Hanwell; Ealing This investigation was transferred to my jurisdiction of Inner West London, by order of the Chief Coroner on the 8h October 2015_ The inquest was concluded on the 4th 2016 at Westminster Coroner's Court sitting at the Royal Courts of Justice. The made the following findings and determinations: The medical cause of death was recorded as: 1(a) Consistent with Compression Asphyxia How; when and where and in what circumstances the deceased came by her death: The deceased's body was discovered on 30th September 2014 on the bed of the shallow River Brent in Hanwell; Ealing having been intentionally weighted down and concealed. She had died significantly prior to that date, soon after her disappearance in the late afternoon of 28h August 2014. She was murdered in the vicinity of the river tow path in a sexually motivated attack with the cause of death consistent with compression asphyxia prior to her body entering the river: Related non-causative circumstances included: a manual reactive UK system for the checking of criminal convictions of foreign nationals with their respective domestic authorities, the effectiveness of which was limited by inconsistent levels of cooperation from such authorities and their policies on retention of criminal conviction data; May July Jury the absence in 2009 of a Home Office or Metropolitan Police policy to require the use of such systems to make such checks upon foreign nationals coming to the attention of the police or other relevant authorities; limited Metropolitan Police awareness of the existence of such system; the process for using it; or of its potential benefits; until the Home Office instruction issued on 18th January 2010,the Metropolitan Police were not legally able to use the responses to such checks for the purpose(s) other than for which that particular check was requested; a border control "watch list" system, containing both international criminal conviction and intelligence information from a variety of sources not being consistently referenced upon the entry of foreign nationals in the UK until 100% checking was implemented on 4 November 2011; and the effectiveness of such "watch Iist" system being limited by incomplete international criminal conviction data therein, including as a result of certain foreign jurisdictions not consistently providing such data_ Conclusion of the Jury as to the death: Alice Poppy Madeleine Gross died as a result of Unlawful Killing:
Circumstances of the Death
Evidence taken at the inquest was that a Latvian national had entered the country in around 2007 2 years after serving years imprisonment for the murder of his wife and unlawful use of firearms_ The jury found that this individual murdered Alice. Over the years he exited and re-entered the UK on multiple occasions most latterly in September 2013, almost a year before Alice died on the 28t August 2014 at the hands of this individual. His name was never placed upon the 'watch list" by the Latvian authorities and as such he was never detained at the border even after universal checking had been introduced_ The Border Agency thus never had an opportunity to consider him for refused entry or deportation: The evidence ofl a senior civil servant with the Home Office was that many EU and non EU foreign countries frequently do not provide such conviction data to the "watch list" The other way that this man could have been brought to the attention of authorities and considered for a public protection order and/ or deportation would have been by a search for foreign national convictions being untaken by police if he came into their custody: In 2009 he was arrested by police in relation to an indecent assault on a 14 year girl: The victim did not cooperate with police and so the case was discontinued and he was released from bail: No check for foreign convictions was undertaken at this time for potential reasons, for example; it was not police policy_ it was not widely known in the police how to undertake such checks, and even if were carried out; this was usually on charge or arraignment at court: The current policy is for such checks now in the Metropolitan police to be mandatory on arrest and to be automated searches of the ACRO database and the Interpol warnings index The evidence was that other UK forces now usually undertake such checks on arrest In this case, such searches in 2013 would have been negative, since his name was not on the Interpol warnings list and would have been deleted from ACRO in line with Latvian policy to delete murder convictions 8 years after release from prison. Such a search would have been positive via the ACRO database, as long as Latvia had entered the information, in 2009. many they
His conviction was in fact brought to light in the murder Inquiry into Alice's death in 2014 by a manual Interpol enquiry of the sort usually used for non-EU foreign nationals. It was the evidence of Ithat in his view due to resource implications in some foreign jurisdictions that checks for foreign convictions should be usually via the automated system using ACRO and the Interpol Warnings list for all foreign nationals on arrest and that the manual Interpol checks be reserved for use at the discretion of the investigating officer in order not to cause delays in serious cases and produce the widest possible risk mitigation: understand that Operation Nexus in now in place whereby foreign nationals with serious foreign criminal convictions that come to the attention of the police are referred to Immigration for potential deportation with public protection orders being available for potential use whist such proceedings are being considered. Further, the evidence was that foreign nationals with foreign criminal convictions are routinely detained at the border as long as their names are on the "warnings list" and are then either refused entry or considered for deportation with the potential for those who wish to appeal being deported and appealing from outside the UK understand that much of this work depends on the application of EU directives and the way have been interpreted by the Home Office The evidence was that the UK routinely enters serious criminal convictions such as murder onto the "watch list"
