British Passport : United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland (1982 — 1992) Overprint on Lamination

In 1975, lamination over the bearer's photograph was introduced to make alteration harder.

Overprinting of the laminate was added in 1981 to make removal easier to spot.

In 1979, UK exchange controls were abolished, and the foreign exchange page was removed.
 

The passport was registered along with holder's son: Nicholas Benedetti (14 May 1970) as the information was striked off on 6 December 1984.

The nationality status was amended on the same date, from "British Subject : Citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies" to "The holder is a British citizen under the provisions of the British Nationality Acts, 1981."
