King Charles III's state visit to the US will have "appropriate security in place in relation to the risk", a minister told the BBC after shots were fired at the White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington.

Chief Secretary to the Prime Minister Darren Jones said the government and Buckingham Palace had been in "close co-operation" with US officials before the trip, which begins on Monday.

"Further discussions will be taking place today ahead of next week," Jones told BBC One's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg programme.

US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump were evacuated from the dinner in Washington DC on Saturday night after a man rushed past a checkpoint and shots were fired.

Speaking later on the same programme, shadow home secretary Chris Philp said it was "vital" to ensure the King was properly protected and urged US and UK teams to review the monarch's security overnight.
