compromise on this including during any period of Industrial Action. Border Force
maintain 100% of the checks for all scheduled arriving passengers into the UK during
periods of industrial action and this will be continued during any future periods
of strike action.</p><p>Border Force’s robust contingency plans keep our citizens
safe and our borders secure. Non-striking Border Force staff, with the full range
of appropriate powers, are continuing to complete their vital roles, including stopping
and detaining passengers where appropriate, supported by military personnel and civil
servant volunteers.</p><p>Border Force has a national assurance framework that is
designed to ensure adherence to policy and guidance and identify any inconsistency
in practice or process across all operational areas.</p>
