The Home Office has no plans to introduce digital IDs for migrants seeking to work in the UK. However, as set out in the Government\u2019s White Paper on the future skills-based immigration system published on 19 December 2018, individuals will use online services to demonstrate their immigration status to employers, landlords and other service providers. These online services will enable individuals to view an online record of their immigration status held by the Home Office, and to share it with others, securely and in real time. Online services are being rolled out now to those who hold a biometric residence document, and those who apply to the EU Settlement Scheme.<\/p>
A decision on an individual\u2019s immigration status is determined by suitably trained Home Office staff.

In the period up to 31 May 2019, the last point at which data was assured, 368 applications were received for administrative review of decisions made on applications under the EU Settlement Scheme. Of these:<\/p>
\u2022 30 administrative review applications were rejected, e.g. because no EU Settlement Scheme application had been received;<\/p>
\u2022 in all the remaining 253 cases, the applicant was challenging a grant of pre-settled status rather than settled status, of which:<\/p>
o 22 of these grants of pre-settled status were upheld following the administrative review; and
o 231 of these grants of pre-settled status were overturned, and the applicant was instead granted settled status following administrative review. In these cases, the applicant had generally accepted a grant of pre-settled status when making their application and then provided additional evidence of their eligibility for settled status with their application for administrative review.<\/p>"}

Synthetic cannabinoids are controlled as Class B drugs under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971. There is a maximum penalty of five years\u2019 imprisonment, an unlimited fine, or both for possession of a Class B drug and 14 years\u2019 imprisonment, an unlimited fine, or both, for the supply and production of a Class B drug.<\/p>
There was a total of 281 convictions for the principal offence of possession of synthetic cannabinoids in 2018, up from 71 convictions in 2017 and no convictions in 2016. For the principal offences of either supply, possession with intent to supply or production of synthetic cannabinoids there were 18 convictions in 2018, up from 4 convictions in 2017 and 4 convictions in 2016.<\/p>
The Government has commissioned the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD) to provide an updated harms assessment on their previous reports on synthetic cannabinoids. The commission also seeks recommendations on whether the current classification under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 of synthetic cannabinoids is appropriate. The advice is due in summer 2020. The full commission has been published online on the gov.uk website.
The Government will await the ACMD\u2019s further advice and recommendations<\/p>"}
