Border Controls To Be Reinforced
Strengthening Britain's borders through International co-operation
Home Office Press Release
18 June 2007
The Government today vowed to use its international relations to strengthen the UK's border controls, crack down on migration abuse and tackle trafficking. The pledge was reinforced by Home Secretary John Reid speaking today from Washington in the US, where he announced that the two countries should routinely share information about travellers of interest, people using false documents and other immigration offenders.
