Lord Coaker (Lab)
The Minister has told us that border security is the Government’s number one priority, which, of course, is right. Will he comment on media reports that an email was sent to Customs staff asking them to prioritise passports over checks for drugs and other such illegal items?
Lord Murray of Blidworth (Con)
I have not seen those press reports, but I will certainly look into that and write to the noble Lord.
