Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many times there have been no police or immigration officials at the ferry port in Dover checking people leaving the UK in the last year.

The requested information has not been released as it is Border Force policy
not to release port-specific staff numbers on grounds of national security.

Exit checks were abolished by the last government. This Government is committed
to reintroducing exit checks by April 2015 on scheduled commercial
international air, sea and rail routes.
