To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Murray of Blidworth on 3 January (HL4343), on how many days on average it takes for an immigration decision relating to issuing a Biometric Residence Permit to be (1) taken, and (2) received; and how many Biometric Residence Permits took more than 48 hours after an immigration decision to be received in (a) 2021, and (b) 2022.

The waiting times for BRPs are dictated by the BRP production and delivery processes.
We aim to deliver a BRP within 7 working days of the immigration decision. BRPs are produced within 48 hours of the production request being made and are collected by our secure delivery partner the same day who attempt to deliver the BRPs within 48 hours of receipt. This equates to a minimum of 5 working days from date of production request being made to delivery of the BRP.
BRP production data does not form part of the Transparency Data and is not publicly available.
