Conclusion (the committee's words)
We welcome the Government’s confirmation that it will continue to look for reasons to grant status rather than reasons to refuse when processing late applicants, and will be giving late applicants “the benefit of any doubt.” We also welcome that the online system for EUSS applications remains open; it should remain so for as long as late applications are possible.
