Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps his Department is taking to ensure that St Pancras International is prepared for the introduction of the EU’s Entry Exit System.
The Government recognises the importance of smooth passenger flows at St Pancras International and it is the Government’s priority to support, where possible, pragmatic solutions to address the potential impact of the EU’s Entry-Exit System (EES) at locations in the UK with juxtaposed controls, including St Pancras.
My Department will continue to engage closely with St Pancras partners on preparations ahead of EES implementation later this year.
