The hon. Gentleman makes another powerful point. I went to Armenia in April to monitor its elections and on my return journey, my fingerprints were checked and a copy of my passport was made. When I got to the boarding stage, I had to put my finger in something to ensure that they knew it was definitely me getting on the plane. If I had destroyed my passport for any reason, there would have a been a link. Such a system should be rolled out widely to ensure that the level of security is heightened.
