Housing: Migrant Workers
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, if the Government will create a scheme for overseas recruited NHS staff to be able to access key worker housing in their first year of working in the NHS.
- Answer
-
We recognise the importance of ensuring high-quality, affordable accommodation is available to NHS staff. We are working closely together with the Department for Health and Social Care (DHSC) to explore how we can best support NHS Trusts to deliver key worker accommodation where it is needed. Lord Markham and I announced last month we will lead a joint taskforce to work through the barriers identified for NHS staff accessing housing.
