| Message | What extra checks will be performed? The current system simply checks identity and for any reasons to prohibit travel, e.g. court orders. |

| Message | If i am absolutely honest i'm not quite sure yet, i am not going to put this bill up for the vote in it's present state that's for sure. I was thinking along the lines that the passport would have the owners fingerprints and retina scan on it, something as difficult as possible to forge. |

| Message | Though we agree with the UB that this is probably too expensive, and we would prefer the reintroduction of a cursory, rather than invasive, check we support this as it is better than no check at all. |
