Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he will include HGV Drivers and Qualified Warehouse Personnel in the UK Shortage Occupation List; and if will he will make a statement.
The Migration Advisory Committee is currently undertaking a Government-commissioned review on the full composition of the Shortage Occupation List. That report is expected to be published in the Spring. It is right that the Government awaits the MAC’s conclusions on this review before making any changes to the List.
