So long as the actual work is done in the UK, as seems likely, it's not really an issue?
It really shouldn't be an issue anyway. It's good if the passports could actually be made in this country, but by no means essential. Why pay more for work to be done here if it can be done more cheaply, more efficiently and with all quality requirements met elsewhere?

It's up to us to keep productivity standards up so that we can compete in the world, and that will be more important than ever in the post Brexit era. Good thing, too.
