JAJ, thanks for posting that.

The applications for Citizenship in 2006 far lower than in 2005. But actually the applications is 2005 were far higher than any other year. The reason for that? Beating the introduction of the Citizenship Test? Would that explain it?

As regards Citizenship Ceremonies, I see here in Birmingham we had more ceremonies than anywhere else in the UK ... 3240 ! Indeed more than the whole of Scotland.
