New exit checks will take place at all airports and ports in the UK from today. Information that is included in passports or travel documents will be collected for passengers leaving the country on scheduled commercial international air, sea and rail routes. But after concerns about delays and congestion at ferry ports and terminals, the government has allowed on a phased introduction. The new system is meant to crack down on illegal immigration and those overstaying their visas. Phasing in the criteria will mean that the government's promise to introduce exit checks by April 2015 will not be met in full. John Keefe is the Director of Public Affairs for Eurotunnel UK.
