Proceeding contribution from Julian Brazier (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 March 2006. It occurred during Urgent question on Immigration (Work Permits).


Immigration (Work Permits)

The House, I am sure, applauded the Home Secretary’s comment about the need, in the first case, to train people locally. In the light of the quadrupling of the number of work permits since the Government took office, from approximately 40,000 a year to about 160,000, will he answer the question of my hon. Friend the Member for Ashford (Damian Green) about what that means for overall numbers?
