Migrant Workers: Pharmacy
(asked on 2nd July 2019) - View Source
Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment he has made of the effect on the community pharmacy sector of excluding pharmacists from the shortage occupation list.
This question was answered on 8th July 2019
The Shortage Occupation List is based on advice from the independent Migration Advisory Committee (MAC).
Last July, the Government commissioned the MAC to undertake a full review of the current composition of the SOL. That review is now complete and was published on 29 May.
The Government is grateful to the MAC for a comprehensive report, the content of which we are now considering, before making final decisions.
