Extreme Right-Wing Terrorism Action (MI5 and CTP)
SIS
240. SIS told the Committee that its Counter Terrorism Directorate (CTD) works closely with MI5, GCHQ and CTP, with many members of staff being co-located. In addition, SIS responds to MI5's prioritisation grid of investigations that fall outside the UK. However, in contrast to MI5 and GCHQ, SIS's work is structured differently, and SIS supports ERWT requirements as and when operationally necessary.[1] MI5 observed that "[SIS] uses its global network in the way you might expect. When bits of threat pop up in other nations, or there needs to be some form of intervention, the network of SIS stations can be brought to bear."[2]
