As you say, UK passports only. Which isn't really the issue when checking
non-UK workers...and it's only available to public sector and FSA
regulated bodies, both of whom have obligations above and beyond the
duties in question. Scaling that to cope with all employers in the UK
might be a bit tricksome.
