Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 November 2026

Debate

Immigration: Earned Settlement

Contribution

I supported the Home Secretary’s original proposals and the tougher measures she has been taking since she came into post. I am also pleased that she made the point clearly about disqualification because of a criminal record. Has any assessment been made by the Department of how many of these care workers will remain in the care sector after the qualifying period?
