Nationality and Borders Bill

Proceeding contribution from Stephen Timms (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 July 2021. It occurred during Debate on bills on Nationality and Borders Bill.

One of the big problems at present is the very long time that it takes to determine asylum applications. Since the former Prime Minister, the right hon. Member for Maidenhead (Mrs May), left the Home Office, the number of case workers has gone up but the number of decisions has gone down in every single year. Why has that catastrophic fall in productivity been allowed to occur?
