Gay and lesbian asylum seekers often have to 'prove' their sexuality in order to strengthen their case for residence, a committee has found.

In a report on the asylum system, the Home Affairs Committee found that LGBTI (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex) refugees faced 'extraordinary obstacles' in convincing immigration officers of their case.

In some cases applicants had even given photographic and video evidence of a highly personal nature to officials.

Gay rights group Stonewall called the system 'distressing,' while the Home Office maintained that it would monitor its level of standards.

As reported by the BBC, the committee said that it was concerned about the quality of decision-making by the UK Border Agency after 30 per cent of appeals against officers' initial decisions were granted last year.
