answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/06/2023 answer text <p>On 23 May, the Government announced a package of measures to tackle the substantial rise in the number of student dependants coming to the UK. This package includes:</p><p>o Removing the right for international students to bring dependants unless they are on postgraduate courses currently designated as research programmes.</p><p>o Removing students’ right to switch into a work route before their studies are complete.</p><p>o Reviewing maintenance requirements for those applying for student and dependant visas.</p><p>o Clamping down on unscrupulous education agents selling inappropriate applications.</p><p>o Improving communications about visa rules to universities and international students.</p><p>o Improved and more targeted enforcement activity.</p><p>We expect this package to have a tangible impact on net migration. Taken together with the easing of temporary factors, like our exceptional humanitarian offers, we expect net migration to fall to pre-pandemic levels in the medium term.</p><p>We keep all our immigration policies under constant review to ensure they best serve the UK and reflect the public’s priorities.</p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 09/06/2023 13:34:05 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick

uin	186989
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/06/2023 answer text <p>As set out in the Home Secretary’s written statement made on 23 May 2023, the Government remains committed to bringing down net migration to sustainable levels. The immigration statistics highlighted an unexpected rise in the number of dependants coming to the UK alongside international students which the system was not intended for. We are therefore taking steps to remove the right for international students to bring dependants unless they are on postgraduate courses currently designated as research programmes. Those affected by this package will predominantly be dependants of students who make a more limited contribution to the economy than students or those coming under the Skilled Worker route. Restricting the ability to bring dependants under the Student route to the aforementioned cohort of international students also ensures we continue to attract the brightest and best talent the world has to offer.</p><p>We keep all our immigration policies under constant review to ensure they best serve the UK and reflect the public’s priorities.</p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 09/06/2023 11:28:58 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick
