The first set of amendments has been laid down by MP's sitting on the Public Bills Scrutiny Committee. For British Overseas Territories Nationality, there is nothing here unexpected and most of it is to tidy up language to be more specific and fair. The inclusion of "no fees" has been highlighted. Also, the inclusion of new clauses for the Chagos children of descent, clauses for spouses and family members removing minimum income requirements, clauses related to Hong Kong military and spouses, and clauses related to extending the removal of discrimination to British Overseas Citizens "BOC's" And removal totally of clause 9 related to stateless children (which we agree with)
