Care Workers: Migrant Workers
Asked by: Helen Maguire (Liberal Democrat - Epsom and Ewell) Tuesday 10th March 2026 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her Department plans to take with (a) the Department for Health and Social Care and (b) local authorities to help ensure that immigration reforms support (i) recruitment to social care vacancies and (ii) the implementation of statutory duties under the Care Act 2014. Answered by Mike Tapp - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office) The Government published the Immigration White Paper ‘Restoring Control over the Immigration System last year which announced the intention to end overseas recruitment for social care visas. The new Immigration Rules which prohibit overseas recruitment took effect in July 2025, however transitional arrangements exist for individuals already in the UK to switch into the route. The transitional arrangements are due expire in 2028 but will be subject to regular review.
The Home Office continues to work closely with the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) funded Regional Partnerships to support care workers, who have been impacted by exploitative employers. DHSC are funding 15 regional hubs in England, made up of Local Authorities and Directors of Adult Social Services, working together to support displaced workers into new roles within the care sector. These regional hubs have received £12.5 million this financial year to support them to prevent and respond to unethical practices in the sector.
The Government remains committed to supporting Health & Care visa holders who wish to pursue a career in the adult social care sector. |

Extracurricular Activities: Government Assistance
Asked by: Helen Maguire (Liberal Democrat - Epsom and Ewell) Wednesday 11th March 2026 Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport: To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, how her Department plans to measure progress towards her target for reducing the enrichment gap; and what steps she is taking with Cabinet colleagues to do so. Answered by Stephanie Peacock - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport) The Government's National Youth Strategy is a 10-year plan designed to ensure that every young person nationwide has somewhere to go, someone who cares for them, and a community they feel a part of. Halving the participation gap in enriching activities between disadvantaged young people and their peers is one of the clear ambitions of this cross-government strategy. Full details of the measurement of the participation gap will be published in due course. The Local Outcomes Framework has already committed to including an indicator on participation in youth services. We are working closely with other government departments to ensure the successful delivery and accountability of the National Youth Strategy. This includes developing a set of shared outcomes to be used across departments, which will allow us to track progress against key outcomes in the strategy. |

Asked by: Helen Maguire (Liberal Democrat - Epsom and Ewell) Wednesday 11th March 2026 Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport: To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, when she plans to begin delivery of the Enrichment Expansion Programme; and how her Department plans to work with selected schools to roll out the programme. Answered by Stephanie Peacock - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport) As part of the Government’s ambition to halve the participation gap, DCMS, in partnership with DfE, will invest £22.5 million through the Enrichment Expansion Programme (EEP). This funding will support up to 400 schools in areas of greatest need across England to provide youth-voice led, tailored and high-quality enrichment offers.

Kinship Care: Parental Leave
Asked by: Helen Maguire (Liberal Democrat - Epsom and Ewell) Wednesday 11th March 2026 Question to the Department for Business and Trade: To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, if he will make it his policy to introduce a statutory entitlement to paid leave for kinship carers. Answered by Kate Dearden - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Business and Trade) The Government’s Parental Leave and Pay Review will conclude in early 2027 with a set of findings which outline next steps for implementing any reforms. In addition to considering, all current and upcoming parental leave and pay entitlements, the Review is considering the needs of other working families who do not qualify for existing leave and pay entitlements, such as kinship carers. The Government is also supporting kinship carers through other mechanisms and has recently launched a kinship pilot to support up to 5,000 kinship families by paying eligible carers an allowance equivalent to the Fostering National Minimum Allowance. |

Schools: Uniforms
Asked by: Helen Maguire (Liberal Democrat - Epsom and Ewell) Thursday 12th March 2026 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what discussions her Department has had with schools on the effectiveness of the three-item cap on branded uniform. Answered by Olivia Bailey - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Education) (Equalities) Whilst many schools are taking action to reduce costs, too many families still tell us that the cost of school uniform remains a financial burden. This is why we have introduced legislation to limit the number of branded items of uniform and PE kit that schools can require. When determining the level at which to set the limit, we considered the available evidence and engaged with a range of stakeholders, including schools, to ensure we struck the right balance between reducing costs for parents and recognising the benefits that some branded items can bring to school life. The majority of primary schools, and nearly a third of secondary schools, already successfully operate within the proposed limit. It is therefore right that schools currently asking for large numbers of compulsory branded items are required to remove them.
