Th& Trustees have read and understood the Charty Commission guidance on the importance of Considering the public benefit when making relevant decisions on our Work. Objectlves and Actlvltles PRCBC'5 goal is lo increase the registration of children and young persons by raislng awareness of the need for registration and the importance of regislraliofi among those who are entrtled lo register as crtizens. We also aim lo provide as much legal assistance as possible, both dir8¢tly and indirectly, lo the children and young people themselves and those who wofkwith them. We assist and represent young people w4th ¢hallenging unlawful refusals and barriers to the registration of children, suth as a¢ce$sibility and fees. We represent British children's complex passport appii¢ations whén li may be hard for thèm to prove their status. We work to publiclse ¢hildren's rights lo access ¢ltizen6hip and to improv6 the tegal advlce avallable on thls. The prlncipal actimty of PRCBC continued lo be as a CIO which provides legal advice, infomiation and represenlalion in respect to registering children as British citizens, when they and thair families do not have the means to pay for such legal adw¢e and represèntation. We employ a Supervising SollcitorlCEO who has worked throughout Ibe period of thi5 report. We had grant fvnding for a second junior solicrtorlparalegal and have recnjiled for this lob bul without long-lemi su¢¢e$s. We also planned to recfult a Legal Pracli¢e Administrator, without success. Support for the Supèrvisina Solicrtof, both in legal and 8dministralive work, has often been provided through both short. and long-lemi consultancy. A small part of this work is done through speciallst qualified volunle8r ad￿Ser5, who are solicitors and are supermsed by our Supervising Soli¢itorlCEO. These solicitors advise Chlldren ond young people on the first Saturday of the month. The sollcrtOTS advise on thelr cases and prepare the documents and represenlalions in support of their complex applications lo the Home Office for registration as Brrtish citizens. If their applications aTe wron9ly refused, we advise an¢J representthem in challenging Ihe refusals including in the higher courts. This higher court work is dono by our Sup$fvising Solicf(orlCEO. We have decided that sup8Thislng and followlng through the volunteers. work Is nol the most effe¢tlve use of her tlme or of deallng with cases and cosjld involve risks. This will be Phased out lalef in 2025. We continue to provide an unfijndad advice service to young pèople, lawyers and other professionals with queries concemillg British citizenship rights. During this accounting period, we provided this to 131 lawyers in response to unsolicited Individual queries and signposted 295 people with bss complex queries to more general advice. We also provide training for lawyers and other legal advisers and information lo soci81 workers and others through infomialion booklets, briefings, articles, blogs and meetings. We fundraise and seek grants and donations towards PRC8C's running costs and lo meet our volunteers. expenses

PROJECT FOR THE REGISTRATION QF CHILDREN AS BRITISH CITIZENS CIO Som¢ ¢hanges aft•r COVID-19 PRCBC had to adapt to conllnue lo provlde our s8￿CeS in dNlerenl ways duflng the pandemlc.

We now do most of our work from the office again and see most ¢llent$ there but continue to deliver some of our sèrvi¢es r¢mot•ly. through zoom ana phone consultstions, by emall and post.

PRCBC secured its own Legal Aid Agency contract so we can oblaln our own legal ald fundlng for the cases we rnpr•8enl, Our solicrtor'8 agreement with the Cardlnal Hum• Cantro therefore formally ended in August 2023, wllh m•ny thanks for their co-operatlon over the proviou8 three years. The fln81 payment for PRC8C's completed casès has been d•layed after the ¢yb&r.att8¢k on Iht Logal AKI Agency. Our appllcalbn for Spe¢iallJt Quallty Mark (SQMI ac¢redltatlon was successfulty flnallsed In February 2024. Our legal ald contract Was In￿1811Y lJsu•d in September 2023, for a year, and w•8 r•n•wed forthree y•ars, to October 2027. In the year ofthls report, PRCBC provld•d Initial 4s6lstan¢•, advice and r8proo•ntatlon to over 172 children and young people dlre¢tly In their Britlsh citizenship applIcot￿n$ (for regislralk)n or a pa$8POrtI.

PRCBC'S challengo to the lawfulness of the Home Offic8 chlldren's cRlz•nshlp ￿gIstratIOn leo, conllnulng Irom 2019 10 2022, resutted In the creatlon of a potenlial fee walver for thll(Jren, and the exemption from lees for chlldren In local aulhorily care, from 22 June 2022. Th1$ has helped very many children to be reglslered as Brfllsh cttlzens. PRCBC'S work on Ihls fee, Including by litigation, was cruclal, underlining the positi￿ impact Ouf work has and why tt is vllal that we eonlinue lo challenge Ihese barrlers via legal andlof other means. There are however stlll problems with tho implemontation of foe walvers, Wrth the Home Offi&8 requiring

PROJECT FOR THE REGISTRATION OF CHILDREN AS BRITISH CITIZENS CIO extremety detailed financial ewdence and explanations to decide on a waiver, and the children's regislratlon fee being raised to £1.214 (and th& adult reolstralion fee raised lo £1.481). PRCBC has met the Head of the Nationality Department, and corresponded with Ministers, about this. PRC8C has continued to monitor the Secretary of State's revised guidance on ¢hildren'$ regSstration by dlscretion. That revision greatly assists many children particularty children brought to the UK at a your¢g age who have lived here for at least 10 years of their childhood and ¢hik1ren In the fijll care of 8 local authorty. These Iwo groups of children are now nomally registered 88 British cltizens on their making an application for this, and ¢hildren In Ca￿ are exémpt from paying the application fee. But we still see many unjustified refusals and advise on contesting them. After a general change in nalionalrty staff gU￿anCe in Febfuary 2025. stating thai Citizenship should be refvsed when people had initially entered the UK illegalty. PRCBC sought and obtained an assurance through our Patron Baroness Lier of Burtersett that this shoultj not appty lo Childrèn. Non6lh8less, we have seen instances when crtizenship was refvsed. An Increasthg area of work Is In ¢onne¢iion wrth domesti¢ abuse. We recelve many referrals and one-off requests for advico from mothers wllh children who ar8 Briti8h or h8v8 8 righl to register but wrth hosllle andlor vlolent lathers not willlng to support applicatlons. We ¢onsl(ler and assist wrth applications for a doclaralion of parenlage in the family courts, which can then 881ablish the Cfilld's crtlzenshlp rigttis. PRC8C's challenge ¢onceming whether ¢hildr8n bom in the UK, whos8 parents were exercising EU Treaty rights al the lime of their birth, were necessarily bom British ¢itiiens was dismissed by the Court of Appeal on 19 March 2024 and the Supreme Court refused pemilssion lo appeal in Juty 2024. However. this lrtigation led difedly lo the British Nationality {Regularisalion of Past Practic8) Act 2023. The Act passéd into law on 29 June 2023. It has secured the British citizenship of many thou5allds of people whose ¢tilzenship had been put at risk by the Home Office changing Its interpr81alion of British nationality law in defending the Challenge brought by PRCBC. The Act essentially preserves the lon9Standing position taken by the Home Office that the relevant cir¢umstancÉs In law of children bom in the UK to a parenl exercising EU Treaty rights from 2 October 2000 were different from those of childr8n bom In like circumstances before that date (the key dIffe￿nCe being lo tr8at the parents as settled before that date and the children th8rofore bom with Brltlsh ciiizenshipl. During this perlod, PRC8C has also rapresented several child￿n and young people with cases concerning the good ¢hara¢ter requirement who are èntitled to be registered. Many of these are young people bom in the UK who did not know Ihey were not Brilish citizens. who have no conne¢lion lo any other ¢ourFtry and who have criminal Convictions. Others are young people who ware in care, or who have disabilitiès. We opened 37 thildren's and young people's cases for representation during this year and closed 33, generally successfully. PRCBC sent a Gopy of our bookiel Children andthewrwhts to British citizenshipto all new MPS ofter the 4 July 2024 general •1oQtion.
