Closed Remove need to register for EU Settlement Scheme for those in UK for 5+ years

Closed on

The Government should remove requirements for EU, EEA and Swiss citizens who have been living in the UK for five years or more to apply for the EU Settlement Scheme to retain their rights. Many people have lived most of their lives in the UK and shouldn't need to register to maintain these rights.

We would like the Government to amend arrangements for these citizens who have been here for five years or more and have been living, working and paying tax whilst being here.
