Question to the Northern Ireland Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the Illegal Migration Bill on travel on the island of Ireland.

Those entering the UK, including those crossing the land border into Northern Ireland, will continue to be required to follow the UK’s immigration rules.

As now, the UK will not operate routine immigration controls on the Common Travel Area, with none whatsoever on the Ireland-Northern Ireland land border.
