Passports: Vetting
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she plans to extend the list of accepted occupations for counter signatories of passports.
Answered by Mike Tapp
The current list of recognised professions is set out in guidance here: Confirming ID: referees (accessible) - GOV.UK. The guidance explains that these are examples of accepted professions rather than a definitive list. Similar professions will be considered.
