In respect of this provision, the previous JCHR concluded in its report on the Illegal Migration Bill: “we remain concerned that an asylum or human rights claimant’s credibility should not be damaged by conduct that may be explained by something other than dishonesty or an attempt to conceal relevant information. Vulnerable asylum seekers may have other justifications for not wanting to hand over access to all their private information to a government official, not least an understandable lack of trust in authority.” The Committee recommended amending the Bill to 160 Rainbow Migration, para 13 161 UNHCR legal observations on the Illegal Migration Bill, 02 May 2023, para 6 45 make clear that the credibility of a claimant who has provided a reasonable excuse for their failure to provide a password etc requested by the Home Office will not be affected.162
