Question

Dr Al Pinkerton

Liberal Democrat — Surrey Heath

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what estimate her Department has made of the number of British citizens who have been registered under the European Travel Information and Authorisation System at (a) airports and (b) the Port of Dover.

Answer

Mike Tapp

The European Travel Information and Authorisation System is not due to launch until late 2026.

Information on the number of travellers registered by the European Entry/Exit System is not recorded by the Home Office as it is a matter for the European Commission and French authorities.
