Lord Marlesford

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether temporary entry permits for those travelling to the United Kingdom are marked clearly in the holder's passport so that other European Union Governments are aware that permanent entry to the United Kingdom has not been granted.[HL1004]

The Minister of State, Foreign and Commonwealth Office
(Lord Malloch-Brown)

Visas for the United Kingdom show the category of entry clearance applied for and validity. They do not indicate whether permanent entry to the United Kingdom has been granted.
