<p>The Government is supportive of the principle of US pre-clearance and there have
been initial discussions between the UK and US governments, however, pre-clearance
requires a commercial agreement between the airport operator and US authorities for
these to be advanced.</p><p>It is important to note pre-clearance is not something
which could be quickly implemented at UK airports. Careful negotiation across the
UK Government and with the US would be required before pre-clearance could become
a reality at UK airports.</p>
