Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when the property lease contract on the HM Passport Office site in Dundee ends; and if she will extend the proposed timeframe for closure of this site.

Her Majesty’s Passport Office holds a serviced office arrangement with Scottish Enterprise at Enterprise House, Dundee which allows access to facilities and interview rooms for three days each week.

Interviews will cease in Dundee on 18 March 2016. HM Passport Office is currently in discussion with Scottish Enterprise to end the arrangement a short time after the interviews cease. There are no plans to extend the proposed timeframe.
