What recent assessment she has made of delays in issuing (a) new passports and (b) renewals.

Reply

His Majesty’s Passport Office is exceeding its performance indicator of 98.5% of standard UK passport applications, where no further information is required, being processed within three weeks. We are working to ensure that these performance levels continue. Performance data can be found in the most recent Transparency Data release at: HM Passport Office data: Q1 2024 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).

What plans she has to end the use of hotels for asylum seekers.

Reply

This government will end the costly chaos in the asylum system by cleaning the previous government’s backlog of claims, in order to end hotel use and save the taxpayer billions. We aim to return to the use of long-standing dispersed accommodation as soon as possible.
