Conclusion (the committee's words)
The Government successfully ensured that over 5.4 million eligible citizens applied under the EUSS ahead of the 30 June 2021 deadline. But over 2 million of these were granted time-limited rights in the form of pre-settled status, placing the onus squarely upon them to preserve their rights by successfully applying in due course for settled status. If they do not, they may lose their rights in the coming years.
