Wind Power: Migrant Workers

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 8 December 2022 to Question 102998 on Wind Power: Migrant Workers, whether any representations were received from employers on an extension of the concession (a) between 1 July 2021 and 31 October 2022 and (b) since 31 October 2022.

Answer

The Home Office regularly engages with other government departments.

The Home Office is not responsible for evaluating the labour market or governing how private companies recruit their workers.

The immigration system aims to allow employers to access the skilled labour that they need to grow the UK economy whilst also ensuring that we maintain control over who comes to the UK to work.
