	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/04/2024 answer text <p>Our priority is to consider claims as efficiently and fairly as possible. This is best for claimants, but also reduces the number of people on asylum support, and in turn, the burden on taxpayers. There may be circumstances which may delay the progression of a case, for example waiting for evidence that is of importance in deciding a claim, or a change in country situation requiring an update in country and policy information notes leading to a pause in deciding cases.</p><p> </p><p>In these circumstances, regular reviews are undertaken at appropriate intervals, dependant on the reason why the claim cannot be progressed. As soon as the reason why the claim cannot be progressed is lifted, consideration of the claim is continued.</p> answering member constituency Corby answering member printed Tom Pursglove question first answered 24/04/2024 16:14:55 answering member 4369 label Biography information for Tom Pursglove
