Kirsty McNeill

Labour (Co-op) — Midlothian

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 September 2024

Debate

Scottish Work Visa Scheme

Contribution

We will strengthen the Migration Advisory Committee, and establish a framework for joint working with skills bodies across the UK, the Industrial Strategy Council and the Department for Work and Pensions. The needs of our economy are different across the regions and nations, and different sectors have different needs. Given that skills policy and employment support are devolved, we will work with the Scottish Government when designing workforce plans for different sectors. This will ensure that our migration and skills policies work for every part of the UK.
