"Consular officers may soon have their interview colloquies with visa applicants recorded, if a bill (approved by the Senate Appropriations Committee last month and espoused by the travel industry becomes law). While only visa applicants will be videotaped, the voices of U.S. consular officials will at last be recorded. Thus, with no small measure of irony, high-fidelity sound, a form of the electronic arts, may create higher-fidelity adherence by U.S. consular officers to the rule of law and fair play on the visa stage."
