Western European business travellers will be forced to give 48 hours’ notice of their plans to visit the US under legislation signed on 3 August 2007 by President George W. Bush. The bill, aimed at bolstering security against terrorism, also requires the screening of all air and sea freight at foreign ports before being allowed into the US.
