policies that relate to using only one of several forenames for a British passport

The request was refused by HM Passport Office.

Dear HM Passport Office,

I would like to have all the policies and guidance that relate to the use of the forenames in a British passport.

If you can provide any additional information that specifically allow or disallow dropping off of some of the forenames (for example using only one forename out of three) used in a British passport. For example using only Mike when the person has the forenames Barry Mike William. Would this be considered a change of name and require a deed poll.

I also like to request information about guidance and/or policies that apply to passport renewals.

Looking forward to your response

Hamid
