Next step after BC if no BRP?

Hello,
I have had my British citizenship two weeks back, in the letter received from the HO it says after the BC, I have to submit my BRP. But I don't have a BRP card. I had got my PR in 2010 and have only submitted my biometrics while applying for naturalization now, but didn't receive any BRP card. I had filled my passport application along with the naturalization.
So my question is what is the next step after the BC if I don't have the BRP?
Please advise
Thank you

No need to submit what you don't have.

This doesn't apply to anyone who held PR under EEA Regulations.

Thank you for your reply.
So what is the next step after the BC? Will I receive a letter to submit current passport?
Thank you

In short you don't have to do anything! Unless you'd like a British passport for which you just apply. You will retain your other nationality (if allowed by your home country) and any passport you are holding.

I have already applied for the passport along with the naturalization. Its been 3 weeks I had my BC,but haven't received any letter from HO on advising what to do next. So was a bit worried.

Presumably you attended the BC ceremony - receiving the passport after that will take a while judging by other postings.
