The Home Office works closely with other government departments as well as relevant agencies and law enforcement to protect those identified as being at risk from foreign states. Tailored protective advice is offered to some individuals considered to face specific threats.

However, it is our long-standing policy not to provide detailed information on the security arrangements for individuals or certain groups. To do so could compromise the integrity of those arrangements and affect the security of the individuals concerned.
