"Biometric technology is to be used to speed up travel between the UK and the US.
Fingerprint, iris and facial recognition technology will be used to speed up frequent travellers' journeys through immigration control, as part of a UK-US agreement for a fast-travel option for trusted travellers going between the countries. The agreement is aimed at boosting business travel. Liam Byrne, border and immigration minister, revealed the agreement to city representatives."
