HC Deb 08 June 2004 vol 422 c370W
Mr. Paice

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many staff from Customs and Excise were employed at UK seaports and airports in each of the last five years. [177175]

John Healey

Statistics on the number of HM Customs and Excise staff employed at UK seaports and airports are not held centrally. Staff are increasingly formed into mobile teams working at seaports, airports and inland locations according to risk in order to improve the impact of their activity.
