Dear UK Border Agency,
Please tell me if any part of the Home Office collects statistics
on the length of time passengers wait in the "EU passport" and
"Other passport" queues at UK borders. If such data is gathered,
please send me the most detailed statistics you have for the period
since 1999, preferably broken down monthly by point of entry.
Yours faithfully,
Andrew Watson

Dear UK Border Agency,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of
Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of UK Border Agency's
handling of my FOI request 'Waiting times at passport control'.
I requested information on waiting times in the "EU passport" and
"Other passport" queues at UK borders since 1999. Thanks for the
data supplied for the period since 2007, which is entirely
satisfactory. However, no data was supplied for the period prior to
December 2007.
I find it very hard to believe that the Home Office did not collect
any statistics whatsoever for waiting times prior to 2007. Please
supply whatever statistics that you have for the period 1999 - 2007
(inclusive).
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is
available on the Internet at this address:
