Channel Ferries: Ostend
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government what discussions they have had with the Port of Ostend about any frontier control requirements for operating post-Brexit ferry services from that port; and what commitment, if any, they have made to funding any such requirements.
- Answer
-
Ostend does not have juxtaposed border controls, so there are no UK frontier controls in operation there. However, Border Force has engaged in a series of discussions with the Port of Ostend and with Belgian authorities about facilities required for the reinstatement of a ferry service.
