<p>The total number of airport identification cards (“airside passes”) held by UK
airports is in the region of 230,000. The Department for Transport does not hold information
on the numbers of airport identification cards issued by financial year. The number
of airport identification cards held at any one time or at any one airport is not
static and may change on a daily basis. The issue and management of airport identification
cards is a matter for each airport operator to handle in line with regulatory requirements
outlined in the National Aviation Security Programme.</p>
