UK Border Force: Police National Database

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what level of access do Border Force staff have to the Police National Database.

Border Force does not routinely disclose operationally sensitive information, as to do so has the potential to prejudice law enforcement and the operation of immigration controls.
