A Public Services Card is issued to an individual following a robust registration process to establish and verify the person’s identity. Part of the required evidence of identity for a non-EEA national to get a Public Services Card is a current valid passport.

The person concerned has been asked to attend with her passport, but has not yet provided it.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
