HC Deb 26 January 2004 vol 417 c60W
Andrew Mackinlay

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what the estimated(a) number and (b) percentage is of the populations of (i) Bosnia and Herzegovina and (ii) Kosovo who have visa-free access to European Union countries by virtue of their Croatian passports or citizenship is; and if he will make a statement. [147734]

Mr. MacShane

[holding answer 14 January 2004]: While we are aware that a number of Croatian citizens living in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo have visa-free access to European Union countries by virtue of their Croatian passports or citizenship, we do not have details of precise numbers. In order to travel to the UK, all Croatian citizens must have a visa.

Further research to determine the precise figures required by this question would incur disproportionate costs.
