How Unsettled is EU Status?
European Union and European Economic Area citizens living in the UK should have applied for so-called settled status in Britain before July 1st. Over five million people have applied - a significantly higher figure than the British government originally estimated would be eligible. But there are fears that, for various reasons, tens of thousands of people failed to meet the deadline. In theory, this means they could lose their right to work, rent housing, or access certain hospital treatment, and are potentially subject to removal from the country.
UK citizens living in EU countries are also having to prove their status.
To examine what has happened so far - to EU citizens in the UK and to UK citizens in the EU - and what happens next, David Aaronovitch is joined in the Briefing Room by:
Mark Easton, the BBC's Home Affairs Editor
Michaela Benson, Professor of Sociology at the University of Lancaster
Catherine Barnard, Professor of European Union and Labour Law, Cambridge University.
Jill Rutter, former Treasury official and senior fellow at the Institute for Government.
Producers: John Murphy, Ben Carter, Kirsteen Knight
Editor: Jasper Corbett
