Lords ChamberMy Lords, I am unable to answer that question—I came here to talk about biometric passports—but I will write to the noble Lord.
My Lords, is the Minister satisfied with the security of the country particularly in relation to people with dual nationality when one passport is used for entry into the country and another for exit?
That is indeed an issue, but we do not believe that maintaining the fingerprint database of the country will help the problem. However, we do have to combat passport fraud.
