With two months to go until UK Chancellor George Osborne announces his sweeping spending review in parliament, now is your chance to let the Government know your views on e-borders.
Voting has opened on the Treasury's Spending Challenge website. Here you can rate the ideas sent in by the public on how the government can cut spending. The RYA's idea for the government to abandon e-borders for boat owners echoes the views of many boat owners who believe that the demands of e-borders will make life difficult when cruising at sea, while not achieving the aim of improving border security.
