Netherlands: Schipol airport

01 July 1994

Support our work: become a Friend of Statewatch from as little as £1/€1 per month.

Passengers arriving at Schipol Airport will in the near future be welcomed to Holland by Labrador-Retriever dogs sniffing at their clothes and luggage. The dogs are trained not to bark or jump, but to sit down if they smell drugs. The measure is one of a range to beef up border controls at the airports and harbours. Computer luggage-tracking databases and mobile X-ray scanning equipment are also part of the Customs upgrading campaign.

Our work is only possible with your support.
