The report required by Section 40B of the British Nationality Act 1981 relates to the Secretary of State’s use of the power to deprive an individual of British citizenship under section 40A(4A), which to date has not been used.

The next review of the power will be commissioned once a suitable person has been identified to undertake the review.
