Full question wording

Next week Parliament is to debate whether or not Britain should opt into the European Arrest Warrant. This is an arrest warrant that is valid throughout the European Union, meaning someone suspected of committing a crime elsewhere in the EU can be arrested in Britain and sent to the other EU country for trial, and someone suspected of a crime here in Britain can be arrested elsewhere in the EU and brought back here for trial. Imagine someone living in Britain is suspected of having committed a crime in a different European country. If the authorities in that country issue a warrant for their arrest do you think the British authorities should or should not have to arrest the person and send them abroad for trial?
