Government plans propose to introduce tuberculosis pre-screening tests for nationals of certain countries who wish to enter the UK for longer than 6 months.
Countries that will be affected by the pre-screening tests will be those with a high incidence of TB, totalling 67 countries.
The scheme has already been piloted by the UK Border Agency and is set to become a permanent and compulsory part of entry clearance into the UK for a number of migrants.
