Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department has had discussions with the travel insurance industry on claims relating to delays caused by the EU Entry Exit System.

The EU Entry/Exit System (EES) is a European Union scheme and questions around implementation remain a matter for the European Union and its individual Member States.

We regularly meet with industry stakeholders, including the travel insurance industry, to support their own readiness for EES and have produced information on EES for them to share with travellers, alongside issuing our own communications to inform travellers of changes at the border.
