July 2006, Britain granted full British citizenship to all Gurkha soldiers and their dependants who had served in Hong Kong. Only 500 HKMSC soldiers and their families were granted British citizenship under the British Nationality Selection Scheme (BNSS) before the HKMSC was disbanded. Some ex-HKMSC soldiers who were resident in the United Kingdom re-enlisted in the British Army on a Military Local Service Engagement (MLSE), with the Military Provost Guard Service (MPGS), and others joined the British Territorial Army (TA). In March 2012, Russ Banks RMP Veteran started the Right of Abode Campaign for HKMSC with Peter Vorberg RMP, Huw Matthews RMP and Roger Ching RMP HK. In 2021, it was agreed by the British Parliament that RoA UK will be sanctioned to those Veterans not given RoA in 1997. Andrew Rosindell MP has led this RoA Campaign in Parliament with Russ Banks RMP veteran since 2013.
