§ Mr. AllenTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what changes were made in 1993 to the United Kingdom immigration control arrangements vis-à-vis other member states of the European Community; and what proposals he has to change those arrangements in 1994.
§ Mr. Charles WardleNo such changes to our immigration control arrangements were made in 1993. The possible changes outlined in my reply of 9 July 1993 to the hon. Member, at column298, are still under consideration. However, as indicated in my reply of 15 December 1993, Official Report, column 655, to my hon. and learned Friend the Member for Burton (Sir I. Lawrence), certain changes to embarkation checks will be introduced on 1 February 1994.
