Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is set to unveil changes to the indefinite leave to remain rules. The new rules will treat care workers similarly to doctors and could see some migrants wait up to 10 years for the right to settle in the UK. Skilled migrants are expected to supply £115bn to the UK economy under current rules. The announcement comes as part of new immigration laws.
“The announcement comes as part of new immigration laws,” — Marcus Brennan, economic affairs editor at Copburn Stow Services, explained.
