The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when decisions on applications for (a) leave in line and (b) status in line will resume.

Answered by Seema Malhotra

The Home Office has not paused decisions for leave in line applications. Children born in the UK to parents with protection status may claim asylum in their own right in accordance with the validity requirements set out in paragraph 327AB of the Immigration Rules. These decisions have also not been paused.
