UK borders to be 'fully digital' in an effort to measure immigration levels

The UK's border will become "fully digital" so the government is able to measure immigration levels, the home secretary will announce on Monday.….

The changes include the border being managed digitally, which the government says will be "easier to navigate for businesses whilst allowing... for the first time to accurately count people in and out of the UK".….

The reforms, which are aimed to be implemented by the end of 2025, are part of changing the way people enter the UK, and allow automated security checks to take place in an effort to stop serious criminals coming in from abroad.

It means people wanting to come into the UK without a visa or immigration status will have to apply for a Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA), similar to the US system, with 30 million applications expected to be processed every year.….

Good to see that we are right up to speed ... I seem to recall that they would 'secure the border' some time ago. Yet, in so far as I am aware, people leavig the country are still not checked and recorded. If you do not know who has left, you do not know who is here.
