Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what estimate she has made of the number of British Nationals Overseas who have had to obtain Electronic Travel Authorisation prior to travelling to the UK.

The Government has agreed to exempt British National (Overseas) passport holders from the need to obtain an ETA when visiting the UK. This exceptional exemption will be kept under review.

Data on the number of BN(O) applications made prior to this exemption being instituted is unavailable.
