We are grateful for the amendment to the Immigration Bill 2015 tabled by Baroness Lister

This particular amendment would mean:

i) a Home Office fee exemption on registration of children as British Citizens who are receiving assistance from the local authority

ii) for any child’s registration as British citizen fee to only include the Home Office cost of processing an application

iii) a fee waiver for a child who cannot afford the registration fee

For Baroness Lister’s amendment, please visit the Bill’s pages on the parliament website:
