Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many members of staff within HM Passport Office are working primarily on fraud and fraud-related issues as of 2 September 2022; and how many members of staff worked primarily on those issues on average in each year since 2010.
His Majesty’s Passport Office’s staffing data is not subdivided to identify those working primarily on fraud and fraud-related issues, with all staff involved in the processing of passport applications having a responsibility for the prevention and detection of attempted passport fraud.
