answer text

The Government remains committed to reducing net migration to sustainable levels but has always been clear that this will take time to achieve. Under the current immigration system, we have maintained numerical caps to limit the number of people who can enter and remain in the UK and introduced measures to ensure employers invest in and develop the UK’s domestic workforce.Following the end of Free Movement, our future skills-based immigration system will support the UK’s dynamic economy and address public concerns around uncontrolled migration.
