<p>Putting aside the morally dubious&nbsp;rhetoric used by the Prime Minister, with its echoes of Enoch Powell and its cowardly pandering to the hard right, the UK Government's White Paper on immigration has potentially far-reaching practical implications for Wales. This is particularly apparent in relation to the social care workforce, of which approximately 15 to 20 per cent come from overseas. I'd like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to their vital contribution to the health and well-being of our society. They should be championed, not demonised as part of the problem.</p>
<p>Of course, we all want to encourage greater domestic training and recruitment of social care workers, but the reality is that current levels are simply insufficient to meet demand. And the situation is only getting worse. The Cabinet Secretary will be aware of data released by Medr at the end of last year, which showed a 27 per cent decline in health and social care apprenticeships and a 34 per cent decline in foundation apprenticeships. What was glaringly absent from the Prime Minister's announcement, therefore, was any indication of the additional resources that will be made available to initiate this substantial increase in the domestic workforce.</p>
<p>Did this Government have any prior engagement with the UK Government on the proposal to end visas for overseas social care recruitment? If so, what is the Welsh Government's official position on this matter? Do you agree with me that the implication of this White Paper, that social care work is unskilled, is not only highly insulting to a profession that contributes billions of pounds to the Welsh economy every year, it also undermines the urgent need to enhance the prestige and esteem of a sector that already feels thoroughly undervalued? And if the proposals in the White Paper are ultimately enacted, how many additional domestic workers will Wales need to recruit each year to make up the shortfall, and how much in additional spending will be required?</p>
