Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department has made an assessment of the capacity to produce biometric residence permits to meet the Streamlined Asylum Process.

We have agreed daily capacity limits that are sufficient to meet our demands for BRPs and have allowed for additional capacity to meet any surges in demand. Our service level agreement is to produce 100% of all BRPs within 48 hours of a request being received. Currently 100% of BRPs are produced within 48 hours and 99.7% within 24 hours.
