PMQs: Cameron quizzed on passport application delays

The prime minister said anyone with imminent travel plans would be fast-tracked without charge to get their passport in time and make sure they did not miss a holiday.

And David Cameron said extra staff were being taken on, as he answered Labour MP Kevin Brennan about delays to applications, who claimed the chancellor was "actually making a profit out of our constituents' misery".

Mr Cameron said the home secretary would update MPs on the situation later on Wednesday.
