Cavendish Coalition letter to the Prime Minister : changes to the health and care visa
Following the announcement of changes to the health and care visa on 4th December 2023, the Cavendish Coalition wrote to the Prime Minister.
Key points
The Cavendish Coalition wrote to the Prime Minister to raise concerns about changes to the Health and Care Visa.
On Monday 4th December 2023, Rt Hon James Cleverly MP, Secretary of State for the Home Department, announced changes to the Health and Care Visa.
The changes only apply to the care sector, but will undoubtedly impact the provision of NHS services. Care workers and senior care workers will be unable to bring dependents when they migrate to the UK, and only CQC-registered providers in England will be able to sponsor Health and Care Visa applicants.
The Cavendish Coalition wrote to the Prime Minister to raise concerns about the changes, and in particular the lack of transitional arrangements.
