Interior ministry says they spent a further £9m on vehicles equipped with monitoring equipment
The French government has bought another 100 vehicles to help stop people from travelling by small boats to England across the Channel as part of a deal with the UK government, it has been announced.
Amid a deepening political row in parliament over the growing number of people taking the hazardous route, the interior ministry in Paris said on Tuesday that it had spent a further £9m on quad bikes, 4X4s, boats and vehicles equipped with monitoring equipment.
