Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether he made an assessment of the potential impact of extending the Offshore Wind Workers Immigration rules concession 2017 on the number of jobs available for UK seafarers.
The Government regularly reviews the existence of concessions against the general principles of the immigration system to check whether they are necessary and regularly undertakes engagement with a wide range of stakeholders. This will continue to be the case in future.
