Allow EU children of British parents to be sponsored under EU Settlement Scheme

Background

We wish the Government to allow EU children of British nationals the opportunity to be sponsored under the EU Settlement Scheme.

Additional details

Adults holding EU citizenship by descent, who are children of British nationals, can't be sponsored under the EUSS unless they are in need of long term personal care. The EUSS allows EU nationals (parents) that obtained British citizenship through naturalisation to apply for children under 25yr to join them in the UK. We think the same rules afforded to EU nationals should apply to British citizens to sponsor their adult children. We believe the current rules result in unintended discrimination.
