Home Office written question – answered at on 10 July 2017.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what estimate she has made of the (a) total and (b) additional number of staff her Department will need to employ to process identification documentation for non-UK EU citizens after the UK leaves the EU.
On 28 June the Government published its offer for EU citizens in the UK and UK nationals in the EU on their rights and status after the UK leaves the EU.
The immigration system that will operate after the UK leaves the EU will be agreed by the process of negotiation that is now underway between the UK and our partners in the EU. Once the details of that system have been agreed, the Home Office will ensure that the necessary resources will be available to implement and operate the system effectively and efficiently, alongside all other aspects of the Government’s existing plans to transform the operation of the immigration system. The Government will provide further detail in due course.
