Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many people are engaged in working on the development programme of Digital Application Processing at HM Passport Office as of 20 July 2022.
The maximum number of people engaged in the development programme is constrained by the number of independent spaces within the technical architecture where change can be made in parallel. Industry leading development practices have been employed to maximise the efficiency and pace of change while minimising the risk to passport processing.
