Biometric registration of immigration — Pilot regulations — 23 Apr 2008 at 19:40

The majority of MPs voted to approve the Immigration (Biometric Registration) (Pilot) Regulations 2008 which sets out, under the powers of the UK Borders Act 2007, which categories of visitors must be issued with a biometric immigration document.

These regulations were replaced by their permanent version by a vote in Parliament on 9 July 2008.
