3:21Now PlayingSources at the Home Office have confirmed that the Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood is actively looking at Denmark to model some of her policies to manage illegal migration in the country.
The government has struggled to halt the number of people coming across the Channel in small boats.
Sky's political correspondent said in Denmark they have "succeeded" in driving down the number of migrants seeking asylum through "draconian" policies.
She added one of the areas the Home Office is looking at is that "people who are granted refugee status in the country are only allowed to bring over their spouse to join them if the two of them are aged 24 and over".
