Argymhelliad gwreiddiol y CU

The Committee is deeply concerned that children and their families can be deprived of their nationality without notice under the Nationality and Borders Act of 2022, which also retroactively validated deprivation decisions already made but found unlawful by courts. The Committee urges the State party to: (a) Remove legal and administrative barriers and strengthen legal pathways for all children, including children without a regular residence status, children born in the Overseas Territories and children in care, to acquire residence status and nationality, including by simplifying procedures and waiving high fees for all children in need; (b) Amend the Nationality and Borders Act of 2022 to ensure that the best interests of the child are taken as a primary consideration in all proceedings related to deprivation of nationality, that the act is not applied to any children who would be put at risk of statelessness or would otherwise be stateless, and that citizens are not deprived of their citizenship as a result of actions they allegedly committed as children.
