Fears over impact of immigration crackdown

THERE are fears that moves by UK Government to slash immigration will badly impact the care sector.

- 

The Labour Government at Westminster has responded to increasing concerns over the level of immigration - and the threat of Reform - by announcing plans to cut the number of people coming to the UK.

Under the proposals social care providers would no longer be able to recruit staff from abroad via health and care worker visas when the policy came into force.

Instead, they would need to draw on the domestic labour force.
