<p>The Immigration Rules already provide for doctors here under the Tier 2 skilled work route and working for the UK health system to return to their home countries for short periods to provide support. The Tier 2 rules allow for periods of unpaid leave of up to one month in every 12 month period. There is also nothing in the Immigration Rules to prevent someone on a Tier 2 visa using their annual leave to volunteer in Africa.</p><p> </p>
