Leon Brittan, British Home Secretary in Margaret Thatcher's Conservative government from 1983 to 1985, is dead.
His family said Brittan, 75, died on Thursday in London.
He spent a decade in Brussels, from 1989 to 1999, as an EU Commissioner, serving as Vice President of the commission from 1989 to 1993.
Last year, Brittan came under scrutiny in an investigation into historical sexual abuse.
